I am trying to install a new 17.3 ide drive in my machine using one of
either of the following 2 methods from the handbook

    # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rda1 bs=1k count=1
    # disklabel -Brw da1 auto
    # disklabel -e da1               # create the `e' partition
    # newfs -d0 /dev/rda1e
    # mkdir -p /1
    # vi /etc/fstab               # add an entry for /dev/da1e
    # mount /1

An alternate method is:

    # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rda1 count=2
    # disklabel /dev/rda1 | disklabel -BrR da1 /dev/stdin
    # newfs /dev/rda1e
    # mkdir -p /1
    # vi /etc/fstab                   # add an entry for /dev/da1e
    # mount /1

As soon as I run the newfs command as listed above I get the following
error.

Any help would be appreciated
