Sorry, I haven't been following this whole thread and so am not responding to your real problem/question. But, just in regards to this fragment: You have it backwards in this question. Disklabel is meant to run only on bsd partitions and not slices. Slices (1-4) are the major divisions of the disk and partitions (a-h) are divisions within slices. Fdisk is what creates slices. ////jerry > Are we looking in > the wrong place? What about that potentially good superblock we found a > while ago?
