Sounds like debugging prints that should probably not be enabled by 
default...

Are you using "dangerously-dedicated" disks?  That is, no fdisk-style 
partition table? If so, disklabel on ad0 or ad2 itself would be valid.  It 
doesn't appear you are, in which case a disklabel operation should be 
performed on the slice, e.g. disklabel ad2s2.
