I can't delete 2 linux partitions from a drive using disklabel.
No matter what /dev/ad0 slices I try to edit, linux partitions don't show
up, but fdisk thinks differently.  I can easily delete and recreate the
first 2 partitions as slices 1 and 2, but can't get rid of the other 2.
Thanx in advance.
below is fdisk output for /dev/ad0

 data for partition 1 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 63, size 40949622 (19994 Meg), flag 80 (active)
        beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1;
        end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 40949685, size 2040255 (996 Meg), flag 80 (active)
        beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
        end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 131,(Linux filesystem)
    start 42989940, size 33206355 (16214 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
        end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 4 is:
sysid 130,(Linux swap or Solaris x86)
    start 76196295, size 1975995 (964 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
        end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
