you may try the following commands:

echo geom_label_load="YES">> /boot/loader.conf
reboot
and see if the labels appear in /dev/label
Is this safe to do? The man page for glabel seems to imply that glabel
should be used before newfs, and tunefs after newfs.
probably safe, but I didn't try this. there's another option: you may
consider to create gmirror device that allows you to shoot two ducks
with one arrow: 1) make your system fail-safe 2) all your devices will
be in form /dev/mirror/devXsYl regardless of underlying adX-s. to do
this all you need is a second hard drive large enough to serve as copy
of your boot drive
