I'm not so expert on this topic, but i stole part of my code from
/sys/isofs/cd9660/cd9660_vfsops.c. I used the iso.h which has some
useful structs to handle primary/sierra/supplementary descriptors.

glabel is definitely ok for me, but please put that warning on
geom_vol_ffs :) Anyway, I had fun with geom.

Bye and thanks,
Dario
