NetBSD localhost 4.0_RC4 NetBSD 4.0_RC4 (GENERIC) #0: Thu Nov  8 02:07:30 PST 2007  builds@wb34:/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4-0-RC4/i386/200711080452Z-obj/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4-0-RC4/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386
>Description:
The command "gpt migrate <disk>" is supposed to convert an existing i386 MBR to a GPT. It however does not know how to deal with NetBSD disklabel partitions. When run against a disk with a netbsd disklabel, it gives an error about an unknown partition type 169.

Code inspection in src/sbin/gpt/migrate.c shows that it only knows how to handle the FreeBSD disklabel case for type 165.
>How-To-Repeat:
# gpt migrate <disk>
