Hi

Just did the following:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da1 bs=1k count=512     #remove old stuff
fdisk -I da1    #cover the entire disk with one da1s1 slice
fdisk da1       #check what's put there
disklabel -rw da1s1 auto        #install virgin disklabel
disklabel -e da1s1      #add partition e:, copied over from c:
disklabel da1s1 #all is ok
disklabel -r da1s1      #spits out 4 lines of warnings??

Why disklabel complains when using the -r switch? It didn't before.
Yes I haven't used fdisk(8) and disklabel(8) for a long time.
Possibly related to GEOM, as far as I understand.
