- Axe the PARTITIONING and IOCTLS section as this has been made obsolete

  now that all that stuff has been abstracted out of the disk drivers with
  GEOM.
- Reference bsdlabel(8) rather than disklabel(8).

-If an uninitialized disk is opened, the slice table will be

-Similarly, if an uninitialized

-by the drive and a single
-.Sq Li c
-partition encompassing the entire slice.
