sbin/bsdlabel bsdlabel.8 bsdlabel.c
Log:
The disk labels generated by bsdlabel can no address more than
0xffffffff sectors. Document this limit and avoid installing bogus
labels on disks with more sectors.
Allowing the installation of labels addressing as much of the disk as
possiable may be a useful addition in some situations, but this was easy
to implement and should reduce confusion.
