Wolfgang Solfrank has explained the problem with router discovery
in `routed` in a way I can understand.
Let's assume that the configured preference of the interface is 5.
This gets converted to 0x80000005 through the use of the UNSIGN_PREF
macro. Later on, this value gets put into the PREF macro, which
compares it against the interface metric(s) (let's assume those
values to be 0 for now). Of course the 0x80000005, cast to int,
is much less than 0, so the clamping rule is triggered, which
gives us a value of 1. This is then converted via SIGN_PREF into
0x80000001 and put into the message. Certainly, this isn't what
was intended.
leave 4 bytes for the Windows NT Drive Serial Number (DSN) at 440-443
(as mbr_sector.mbr_dsn).
Ensure that all the MBR & PBR code reserves space for mbr_sector.mbr_dsn.
Leave the bootsel magic number at 444-445 as mbr_sector.mbr_bootsel_magic
(instead of mbr_sector.mbr_bootsel.mbrbs_magic), but use 0xb5e1 (MBR_BS_MAGIC)
instead of 0xaa55 (MBR_MAGIC) to indicate that this change has occurred.
Rework MBR_BS_NEWMBR to mean "mbr_bootsel has moved to 400".
Modify fdisk(8) to automatically relocate the mbr_bootsel from 404 to 400
if mbr_bootsel_magic is the old value (0xaa55), and unset MBR_BS_NEWMBR
to flag that new mbr_bootsel code must be used if updating the MBR.
These changes fixes a problem where Windows 2000 or Windows XP would corrupt
the last 3 bytes + NUL of MBR partition 3's bootsel name if the bootsel name
was 5 characters long, replacing bytes 6-9 with the DSN.
Also, by explicitly reserving the space for the DSN we prevent problems in the
future if non bootsel MBR or PBR code had other information at bytes 440-443.
finding an ffsv1 sb at 64k.
Also stop it playing with fs that have 'FS_FLAGS_UPDATED' set.
It certainly doesn't act on that falg, and my guess is that it is
playing the pre-ffsv2 fs.

It could be the first alternate for a ffsv1 filesystem with 64k blocks.

indicates that the target of the fdisk operation is a file, not a
disk. With -t and -T, the user tells fdisk the geometry for the

are not satisfactory, the user may tell the geometry to fdisk using
-t disktab -T disktype.
The existing pkcs5_pbdkf2 keygen method is retained functionally
as-is, for compatibility with existing params files. The corrected
algorithm, which is now the default for new params file generation, is
called pkcs5_pbkdf2/sha1.
NB. The backwards compatibility for the miscreant keygen method will
be removed at the same time as support for the previous parameters
file syntax. Sometime between now and then, users should update their
params files using -G, which will create a new params file including
an xor value so that the resulting generated key is the same; they
should also
