Ah -- your 'c' partition does not start at 0.
It's an old FreeBSD partition on your disk. That should not work; it
is bunk. We are removing the code from the kernel that allows it to
work, because it requires extra stupid checks all over the place to
support an old 386BSD stupidity.
It appears I have the very same issue, though with a much larger
offset. I created an OpenBSD partition on an existing partition table
towards the end of the drive.
