I like to create GNU/Linux systems that use a FreeBSD partition table type.
Could we have support for that added in?  I find it very nice to be able to
use the disklabel program to divide up a disk.

I happen to hate the DOS fdisk command, and I really would rather that
people attempting to use conventional proprietary tools not be able to
discern anything about my harddrive.  It is dedicated to free software.

I hope grub never loses that bsd bootloader syntax, and in fact, could we
make it just like it, so instead of hda, we would say wd0?  As long as we
are getting users to expect a bsd-like syntax, we might as well follow
principle of least surprise and go all the way. 

Thanks.  And great work!
