Might want to try the parted partition editor instead. Its labeling engine is a great deal friendlier will try to autocomplete the values for you.
Additionally if this drive is not a boot drive, just use a PC disk label because the kernel can still read it just fine and it's a lot more reliable and easy to deal with than a Sun label, which has always been troublesome when I've tried it, especially on big disks. I wish I understood more about disk label internals so I could write a better label maker, but I really don't know what I am doing with that sort of stuff.
