>Description:
	I recently bought a SCSI disk to use with FreeBSD 4.6.2, 
	and am experiences the same string of issues described here in
	2000:
	http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=3545516&list=168

	I'm requesting that libdisk be updated to handle 1024
	bytes/sector disks, or least do something more useful
	than throw a segmentation fault in the presence of one. 

>How-To-Repeat:
	1. Start with 1024 bytes/sector disk
	2. Use fdisk within sysinstall to attempt to update disk record
	3. Segmentation fault happens when writing the record
