I tried copying a FreeBSD slice from a disk on an Adaptec SCSI 
controller to a logical drive on an AMI Megaraid controller, using a 
DOS-based utility. (Powerquest DriveImage).  I've done this before on 
non-RAID SCSI controllers and it's worked fine, but this time I'm 
having problems. 

(perhaps because I split the DOS partition onto a smaller separate 
logical drive and now the slice offset is different)

Anyway I booted up with the fixit CD, was going to install booteasy 
on the MBR of logical disk 1, but I noticed the following repeated 
several times in dmesg and wondered if its likely I can just change 
the disklabel and fix this? (ie change the slice offset?)  Newlines 
added for readability:


amrd1: rejecting BSD label: raw partition offset != slice offset
amrd1: start 63, end 17526914, size 17526852

amrd1c: start 417690, end 17928539, size 17510850

amrd1s2: rejecting BSD label: raw partition offset != slice offset
amrd1s2: start 63, end 17526914, size 17526852

amrd1s2c: start 417690, end 17928539, size 17510850
