Just a nit.  I use the patch on a disk with 3 slices (one of which is
BSD/OS and one is FreeBSD).  It allows me to use BSD/OS partitions just
fine from FreeBSD.

******* Working on device /dev/rsd0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=522 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)

parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=522 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)

Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 0 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 63, size 3261132 (1592 Meg), flag 80
        beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1;
        end: cyl 202/ sector 63/ head 254
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 6,(Primary 'big' DOS (> 32MB))
    start 3261195, size 1445850 (705 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 203/ sector 1/ head 0;
        end: cyl 292/ sector 63/ head 254
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 159,(unknown)
    start 4707045, size 1429785 (698 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 293/ sector 1/ head 0;
        end: cyl 381/ sector 63/ head 254
