It's not treated as removable (removable flags are set to false), but
yes it will show up. The same will happen with tunefs, glabel or gpt
labeled disks, which is why I have the attached in
/usr/local/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thridparty. When I label all
partitions, I will have to add those too to prevent them from showing
up. I can't really ignore /dev/ufs/* cause I want removable disks that I
labeled to show up correctly.
