  Is there any way of setting up a boot/root partition using the disklabel
  procedures, on a SCSI drive anyway, or can it only be done using the
  sysinstall/fdisk utility?
 
Hi,

you might want to install the bootloader?

Look in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot; if you type make there
you should get two files; boot1 and boot2.

Then use disklabel -B -b boot1 -s boot2 <disk> to install them.

Hope this helps?
