Well, I never actually use the disktab entries.  I just disklabel any
old thing on to the disk, and then edit the crap out of it to make it
look like what I want... (disklabel -e)

But I do happen to have a disktab entry for a 2624F:

Undoubtedly, you'll want to change the partition sizes... I'm not sure
what the issues are in regards to the sparc port. (ie: on the hp300
and pmax ports, the 'a' partition doesn't start at the very beginning
of the disk.)
