The new drive is IDE, the 4Gb drive is SCSI.. So to disklabel the new drive disconnect all other drives from the system, boot from the install floppy, and partition/disklabel, then reinstall drives and reboot.

I am finding that the alt groups are accounting for about 70% of the feed, therefore I will have to leave the alt groups on the 4Gb SCSI, but I could put the other groups on the new drive..
