I think ccd is a special case. if you want to specify a different partition, you have to offset it by 240 blocks or so otherwise it stomps the ccd disklabel. newfsing the c partition seems to account for that in some funny way. We ran into this building a ccd on an OpenBSD box. > And if this is not the preferred way, how would one go about specifying a > different slice? In disklabel -e, just copy the 'c' line and change the c to h. Then newfs h.
