This is a duplicate for PR # i386/251.

My first idea has also been to blame disklabel, but thinking over it,
the disklabel is located midst in the boot blocks, so it's really a
Good Thing (tm) that disklabel(8) insists on correct data.

sysinstall needs to be fixed instead.

I'm going to close this PR, since it's not particularly useful to have
a duplicate one.
