I simply want to create a single partition encompassing all of the

I've searched the web, plus read searched the last 11k+ messages on

# disklabel -w sd1 'disk'
disklabel: unknown disk type: disk
You need to create an entry in /etc/disktab for the disk type "disk",
which defines all of the variables that go into the disklabel that will
be created. man 5 disktab
It's easier to create a disklabel interactively.
