Ok, here is a patch that I THINK should allow people to mount
undisklabeled drives and see their DOS partitions.
the four MBR (DOS OS2 or whatever) partitions should appear
as partitions e,f,g and h
e.g. rsd0e or rwd0e through rwd0h.
If you have a disklabel that get's preference.
I cannot test this here, so can someone out there
please report back to me whether this works.
