Obviously you didn't read the man pages. `fdisk -BI ad3` is a typo, most
likely because the disklabel command uses the -Brw flag. From the
man page, we see that fdisk's -B flag reinitializes boot code in sector
0 of the disk. But if there is no code to reinitialize, it exits with an
error, saying you don't have a proper MBR.
If you want a single slice on the disk, just do `fdisk -I ad3`. Then run
disklabel like the walkthrough says.
