Subject: Hangs after editing a disklabel

Precedence: bulk

I've just installed a new disklabel on my scsi disk with

# disklabel -w -B sd0 auto

which installed a working disklabel. But, when I do

# disklabel -e /dev/rsd0c

the kernel hangs after the :wq in vi, perhaps when the disklabel
information is written to the disk. This makes it very hard to make
any new partitions on a new disk. This same problem occurs on sd1 as
well. My scsi controller is a NCR 810, I'm using a very recent
(4. april) -current.
