Well, there is no howto, i didn't get to write it, but there is the
source code, and i would be willing to help you out as good as you can.
Maybe the best solution would be to look at the disk_amiga.c for
example, and replace the code there with the one needed for atari
partition tables, and i will help you out as best as i can. In the
meantime i will look at IBM disk labels for s390.
