`partition' in our terminology, btw.  `slices' are what's your fdisk
table pointing to.

Well, if you can already use `c', simply run `disklabel -e', and clone
this one into another partition.

See the FAQ, section:

(Have a look at the current FAQ on www.freebsd.org, please.  This
section has been updated.)
