bash-2.05a# disklabel -w -r da0
usage: disklabel [-r] disk
(to read label)
disklabel -w [-r] [-n] disk type [ packid ]
(to write label with existing boot program)
disklabel -e [-r] [-n] disk
(to edit label)
disklabel -R [-r] [-n] disk protofile
(to restore label with existing boot program)
disklabel -B [-n] [ -b boot1 [ -s boot2 ] ] disk [ type ]
(to install boot program with existing label)
disklabel -w -B [-n] [ -b boot1 [ -s boot2 ] ] disk type [ packid ]
(to write label and boot program)
disklabel -R -B [-n] [ -b boot1 [ -s boot2 ] ] disk protofile [
type ]
(to restore label and boot program)
disklabel [-NW] disk
(to write disable/enable label)
Maybe this is why /stand/sysinstall doesn't work?
