I have a new disk drive that I want to put a NetBSD partition on.
I have so far used fdisk and got a NetBSD partition defined (disk
originally had just windoze 95 on it) thus:
Information from DOS bootblock is:
0: <UNUSED>
1: <UNUSED>
2: <UNUSED>
3: sysid 165 (FreeBSD or 386BSD or old NetBSD)
start 55, size 666545 (325 MB), flag 0x80
beg: cylinder 0, head 1, sector 1
end: cylinder 1009, head 11, sector 55
But when I try disklabel -r /dev/rwd1d no matter which other flags I give
I keep getting:
disklabel: no disk label
How do I write a label to this disk and newfs it?
