I have output from bsdlabel -A but unfortunately not from fdisk, so I can't 
compare it. Although I may have copy of MBR made with dd somewhere.
Good suggestion, THX.
Will try to compare fdisk output.

I will also try fill disk with 00, restore backup again, so will save fdisk 
output next time and maybe finally I will understand how fdisk works.

Many thanks
