Well, trying to automate the swap partition sharing...

Funny:

fdisk -i /dev/rwd0 >/dev/null 2>&1 <<eof
n
n
n
y
165
194880
33120
n
y
n
n
y
eof

Does here somebody say we'd need a command-line modus for fdisk? :--)

Anyway, i can succesfully re-convert Linux' swap partition into a
valid FreeBSD slice by the above, but

disklabel -r -w wd0s3 <mysliceinfo>

always fails:

disklabel: ioctl DIOCSDINFO: Label magic number or checksum is wrong!
(disklabel or kernel is out of date?)

Any hints?

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
