Mike Pritchard a5ed710ccd Fix even more spelling errors in some more man pages. 1996-01-30 16:34:52 +00:00
Jean-Marc Zucconi dc94a1c589 Fix the spelling of 'partition'. 1996-01-04 02:00:16 +00:00
Julian Elischer ba3551df6e remove the calls to DIOCWLABEL, as it isn't supported any more
and the error message confuses the user.
(just commented out foe now)

Joerg Wunsch e3038c6ef5 Update to the slices era. Make /dev/rfoo0 the defaults, not
/dev/rfoo0d.

Scan a list of devices instead of insisting on all the world
being wd0.

Allow for disk names to be specified (e.g. `sd0') instead of full
path names only.

Sync the man page with the reality.

Bruce Evans c48cef7def Don't write outside of partp[] if the user gives an invalid partition
number for the partition to be made active.  Do nothing instead.  This
allows clearing all the active flags by specifying an invalid partition.

Bruce Evans 0b461cd7de Don't change the active partition when the user says not to change it.
Convert absolute sector 0 to C/H/S 0/0/0, not 0/0/1.

Open in O_RDWR mode for the undocumented -a option, so that -a can be
used without -u.

Bruce Evans b60eb39594 Don't exit early if the device is not character special or if the
device driver cannot supply a label (real or faked).  This allows
you to practice using fdisk on disposable media (e.g., "dd count=1
<dev/zero >/tmp/junk; fdisk /tmp/junk", "dd count=1 </etc/passwd
>/tmp/fix-up-the-mess; fdisk /tmp/fix-up-the-mess") and allows me
to test DOSpartitioning and labelling on floppies.

Jordan K. Hubbard 2caac73e76 Fix gross spelling and typographical errors pointed out by Keith Bostic. 1994-04-24 01:22:07 +00:00
Rodney W. Grimes 0ef0620351 The fdisk man page doesn't show correctly the usage possibilities of
fdisk.  It was missing the disk argument.
