I have just extracted the src01 distribution but cannot find the sources for
wdboot and bootwd.

After having read the disklabel.c, it occurs to me that disklabel can
only be put at the first sector of a partition, but this
time it can be at dos partitions as well.

I need this code in order to start thinking seriouly about a 386bsd based boot
manager.
