Yep, this one has me baffled.  The disklabels are there.  Well at
least 'disklabel <slice_name>' shows something besides gibberish.
This may sound stupid but if they are required and indeed not there
why would the old driver not barf at the same spot?  If I had to
fathom a guess I'd say it had to do with using incorrect drive
geometry.

Got any ideas on where I might start looking to fix this one?
