What do you mean? I thought libdisk was tested and packaged. It's not
working properly?

I will probably make some more tests with that tonight.

Yes. What I see is a simple button in the slice editor to pop another
window (disklabel editor). But I have close to no knowledge of
disklabel's internals (apart from time to time editions with disklabel
-e), so I rely again on libdisk. Is that proper? Should I make further
tests on libdisk? I would need an extra disk (duh). Not so handy.. I
guess I could dig out an old 300Mb drive somewhere. ;)

I am interested in making this program fool-proof and complete, and I do
have extra time on my hands right now.
