I have been trying to get a label installed on a 1gb disk(sd1) without
success. The error that I always get back no matter what angle of
attack I use. Listed below you will find the errors that I see.
Any suggestions on how I can get this darn thing labeled or is the
drive just not going to work?
(when saving the label info via vi)
disklabel: ioctl DIOCWDINFO: No disk label on disk;
use "disklabel -r" to install initial label
re-edit the label? [y]: n
balboa# disklabel -r sd1
Bad pack magic number (label is damaged, or pack is unlabeled)
Thanks,
Aaron Williams
