I've been doing some debugging and the problem only happens when I
select sd1 instead of sd0. The patch below seems to fix the bug.
The "problem" that remains is that once you have selected one or more disks
in the partition editor you cannot delete/add other disks anymore. Once
disks are selected, you always end up in the FDISK editor immediately for
all selected disks; in previous versions you always got the "Select Disks"
menu first.
