On 4.x I have been using a slightly modified version of Warner's diskprep
to write new compact flashes. On -current fdisk die with signal 8 (Floating
point exception) when this part of the script runs:

        $dev = "/dev/r${drive}";
        system "/bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=$dev count=128 > /dev/null 2>&1";
        system "/sbin/fdisk -BI $drive";

$dev is normally da0, which is the compact flash plugged into a Sandisk
usb CF reader.

So is there a better way in the GEOM world to achieve the same thing?
