Subject:         Disklabel problems, trying to add a second scsi disk

Hi,

    I have been trying to install a second scsi disk on my system 
using the instructions found in the disks.ps file found on 
freefall.freebsd.org/incoming.  The instructions say to write a 
disklabel using a prototype file with the following command:

disklabel -R -r sd1 diskproto

I did this and got an error message saying: "write: Read-only file 
system"

I figured that the disklabel was set to read-only so I executed this 
command, which  according to the man pages will make the disklabel 
writable:  "disklabel -W sd1"

after doing this I tried writing the label again as I described 
above, but it still did not work, and I got the same error message.

Can somebody please help me?

Thanks in advance,
C.P.
