from http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/8/prep --

	Initialize the blank hard disk /dev/sdC0/data:

		disk/mbr -m /386/mbr /dev/sdC0/data
		disk/fdisk -baw /dev/sdC0/data
		disk/prep -bw -a^(9fat fs cache swap) /dev/sdC0/plan9
		disk/format -b /386/pbs -d -r 2 /dev/sdC0/9fat 9load 9pcdisk plan9.ini

I use the last line whenever my 9fat partitions get mangled by devfs :)
