I am still having disk label problems. I rebooted the computer again tonight, and once again discovered that the disk label is messed up! Any ideas? I had no boot manager installed, and it just comes up with "missing operating system". Sysinstall shows no disklabel at all. There are no traces of my old slices inside the FreeBSD partition. This is really frustrating - I think this is the third time. Could it be related to the hibernate to disk program? Maybe that is overwriting the boot blocks or something. I read on the IBM site that it cannot be used with a boot manager, but here I am not using one. Any suggestions are welcome...
