Cool!

I have a question...  In the way of Apple's partition
scheme, partition map grows as new partition is added.
(duh!) Pdisk had some problems for handling this "growing
partition" when I played with pdisk under mono-linux on a
Power Mac a couple months ago.  So I gave up to port it to
NetBSD in that time.

Haven't you been experienced with this problem?
