> glabel -- disk labelization control utility
Labelization is not a real word.
The utility labels GEOM providers (not to be confused with disks).
Maybe better:
> glabel -- GEOM provider label utility
– or:
> glabel -- GEOM provider labelling utility
From DESCRIPTION:
> … labels cannot be set with glabel, but must be set with the appropriate
> file system utility, … Currently supported file systems …
This is confusing.
Does the list show what's supported by the _non_-glabel utilities (for labels
that glabel can _not_ set)?
Or, does the list show what _is_ supported by glabel? If so, then there should
probably be a paragraph break.
From EXAMPLES:
> tunefs -L data /dev/da4s1a
> mount /dev/ufs/data /mnt/data
That's not an example of glabel.
