 temporarily disabling these protection mechanisms can be found in the
 geom(4) manpage. Specifically, do a

 to allow writing to the MBR, and restore it to 0 afterwards.

This is stale message. boot0cfg might work without this.

On a *mounted* disk? Surely that qualifies as an "open" for the purposes of the check.
