   At the moment, the miniroot has a 32MB filesystem, complete with a valid
   disklabel for a 32MB disk.  This overrides the real disk size.  Look for
   "install diskimag" in sys/arch/pmax/dev/rz.c.


wow, that's evil.  if you need to keep this code, it should move into the
pmax readdisklabel() function proper.
