on whether the parent chunk is of type whole. This also applies to
MBR slices for non-GPT disks. Since most of the GPT handling is
conditionally compiled, do the same with the partition naming.
This fixes a braino that caused slices to be named as GPT partitions
and generally messing up an install.

index referencing it. We need to know the original type and name
so that we know what to put in the table when we reconstruct it.
o Clear the table entries before we rebuild it to avoid that we
end up with stale data.
o Sequentially populate the table entries from the chunks. For the
chunks that have an index (now referencing the saved copy) we
use the saved type and name. This way we can handle unknown types
better. In all cases we update the start and end LBAs.

dividing the media size with the sector size, we multiplied. The
second is an off-by-1 error that's the result of mixing up count

platforms except ia64 and use Int_Open_Disk() in open_ia64_disk.c
on ia64. We need to know more than GEOM can provide us so we're
forced to read from the disk. Move uuid_type() to open_ia64_disk.c
and remove all references on non-ia64.
o Pass the GEOM conftxt to Int_Open_Disk() so that only Open_Disk()
needs to know about GEOM and libdisk can more easily be used with
media not handled by GEOM.
o Create an ia64 specific definiton of struct disk on ia64, because
we don't need/have most of the fields other platforms need and
other fields not applicable on platforms other than ia64.
o Do not compile change.c on ia64. It's too PC specific.
o In Fixup_Names() in create_chunk.c, try all partition numbers
that are valid for the GPT disk. We have the total number of
partitions that can be allocated in the disk structure on ia64.
Also, use the GPT partition naming if we're creating one under
a chunk of type "whole". It's a GPT partition in that case.
o In Create_Chunk(), compile-out the PC specific code on ia64 that
checks BIOS geometry restrictions.
o In Debug_Disk() in disk.c, dump the ia64 specific fields.
o Save the partition index in the chunk on ia64 so that we can
preserve it when we write the data back to disk. This avoids that
partitions get moved around or swapped after installing FreeBSD,
which may render a disk unusable.

o In Delete_Chunk2(), also look for chunks of type "part" under
chunks of type "whole" on ia64. They're not only under chunks of

there to support sysinstall, and enabling DEBUG creates spurious
console output that can't be read anyway... This slightly cleans up
the visual impression of the system install by not spamming the console
during the labeling of the disks.
Move the remaining bits of <sys/diskslice.h> to <i386/include/bootinfo.h>
Move i386/pc98 specific bits from <sys/reboot.h> to
<i386/include/bootinfo.h> as well.
Adjust includes in sys/boot accordingly.
- In Create_Chunk_DWIM(), if there is a freebsd chunk that has no
children chunks, then trying to add a child part chunk will fail even
though there is free space. Handle this special case by adding an
unused chunk the full size of the freebsd chunk as a child of the
freebsd chunk before adding the new part chunk. This situation can
happen when changing the type of an existing slice to be a FreeBSD
slice type or when installing onto a blank disk on Alpha (which has
no slices.)

as a whole chunk by default if this isn't a BSD partition or a unused or
whole chunk. Before we just did this for FreeBSD and FAT slices, which
means that other chunk types such as EFI and mbr (mbr is used for slices
that don't have their own chunk type).

always to the first 16 sectors of the disk. The firmware reads the boot
code from a partition, defaulting to 'a' if none is specified, which only
corresponds to the first 16 sectors of the disk if 'a' is first. Solaris
often makes the swap partition first, instead of the root partition, and
users expect to be able to do the same with freebsd as well. This also
allows one to temporarily boot from another partition if the boot block
on the root partition gets scrambled somehow.
o Remove all code guarded by !defined(__ia64__). This file is
specifically written for ia64,
o Handle the case when read_block() or write_block() fails. We
don't want sysinstall(8) to signal a thumbs-up on error,
o Set the starting (cyl,hd,sect) triple to 0xFFFFFF when either
bios_hd or bios_sect is zero or the LBA us not representable
with the triple. In that case automaticly initialize the
ending triple with 0xFFFFFF as well,
o Reindent Write_Int32() as it was different than the rest of
the file,
o Remove some unused variables that appeared to be used but
were effectively useless.
o Plug a memory leak: The second timne we read the MBR, we write
out a modified block, but didn't free the memory after writing.
o Replace d1->sector_size with 512 when we read/write the MBR.
We ignore the sector size in cases we shouldn't but adhered to
it in cases it would be wrong if the sector_size wasn't 512.
This file should eventually be rewritten to write out a GPT. For
now, a MBR will do...
