A VM with slices and/or MBR will have a slice named /dev/da0s1a and makes growpart fail on its partition detection;

It seems the regex needs to be modified to support MBR disks, if we want to support them.
Thanks, Tyler, for filing this bug.
It looks like fixing this issue involves figuring out what the resize invocation should look like.
On FreeBSD, if I understand correctly, gpart is used to resize the disk. I'm curious what that invocation should look like.
Maybe something like this?
gpart resize -i a /dev/da0s1
Could you please confirm that the above works, or provide an example command that works with MBR+slices?
