That's a very good question. Right now you can decide whether you want to use the disklabel approach or wedges. I don't think we need both. I think having the full disk (raw) device ((r)sd0d) and compat symlinks to the wedges is good enough and would help eliminate quite a bit glue in the existing drivers. Joerg
