You can use "p k", "p m", "p g", etc. from disklabel's interactive mode.

See SYNOPSIS in the manpage - "-p g" is for this one which just prints
the disklabel:

   disklabel [-Acdtv] [-h | -p unit] [-T file] disk

The interactive mode (-E) only takes these flags:

   disklabel -E [-Acdnv] [-F|-f file] [-T file] disk
