MFC r287396:
It's 2015, and some people are still trying to use fdisk and then go asking what debug flags to set for GEOM to make it work. Advice them to use gpart(8) instead. Something similar should probably done with disklabel, but I need to rewrite the disklabel examples first. Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation
