so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages. Many more to come.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is used to calculate the disk partition sizes based on the
|
|
default rules used at Berkeley.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Available options and operands:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
An entry suitable for inclusion in the disk
|
|
description file
|
|
.Pa /etc/disktab
|
|
is generated; for example,
|
|
.Xr disktab 5 .
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
Tables suitable for inclusion in a device driver
|
|
are produced.
|
|
.It Fl s Ar size
|
|
The size of the disk may be limited to
|
|
.Ar size
|
|
with the
|
|
.Fl s
|
|
option.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On disks that use
|
|
.Xr bad144 8
|
|
type of
|
|
bad-sector forwarding,
|
|
space is normally left in the last partition on the disk
|
|
for a bad sector forwarding table, although this space
|
|
is not reflected in the tables produced. The space reserved
|
|
is one track for the replicated copies of the table and
|
|
sufficient tracks to hold a pool of 126 sectors to which bad sectors
|
|
are mapped. For more information, see
|
|
.Xr bad144 8 .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl s
|
|
option is intended for other controllers which reserve some space at the end
|
|
of the disk for bad-sector replacements or other control areas,
|
|
even if not a multiple of cylinders.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The disk partition sizes are based on the total amount of
|
|
space on the disk as given in the table below (all values
|
|
are supplied in units of sectors). The
|
|
.Ql c
|
|
partition
|
|
is, by convention, used to access the entire physical disk.
|
|
The device driver tables include
|
|
the space reserved for the bad sector forwarding table in the
|
|
.Ql c
|
|
partition;
|
|
those used in the disktab and default formats exclude reserved tracks.
|
|
In normal operation, either the
|
|
.Ql g
|
|
partition is used, or the
|
|
.Ql d ,
|
|
.Ql e ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql f
|
|
partitions are used. The
|
|
.Ql g
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql f
|
|
partitions
|
|
are variable-sized, occupying whatever space remains after allocation
|
|
of the fixed sized partitions.
|
|
If the disk is smaller than 20 Megabytes, then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
aborts with the message
|
|
.Dq Li disk too small, calculate by hand .

|
|
If an unknown disk type is specified,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will prompt for the required disk geometry information.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
Most default partition sizes are based on historical artifacts
|
|
(like the RP06), and may result in unsatisfactory layouts.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When using the
|
|
.Fl d
|
|
flag, alternative disk names are not included
|
|
in the output.
