Disklabel information, which includes the physical drive (partition c) can be
obtained from the disklabel(8) command.  If the drive has non-OpenBSD MBR
partitions, *and* the disklabel was built after those MBR partitions were
created, they will have assigned partitions in the disklabel.

Show, in gigabytes, the layout of SCSI drive #0:

# disklabel -p g sd0

Show, in megabytes, the layout of IDE/ATA drive #1:

# disklabel -p m wd1

Show, in gigabytes/megabytes/kilobytes as needed, the capacity and current
utilization of all mounted disks:

$ df -h
