200Gig disk shrinks to 124 upon install

[Ben Hyde]

I casually installed a 200 Gig dis on a 4.3-stable freebsd system. I quickly followed the directions in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks- adding.html section "12.3.2.2 Dedicated". df -g now reports that the resulting disk is only 124 Gig, so I'm sad and confused. I expected some shrinkage, but not quite so much. ideas?

This is what disklabel reports...

# disklabel ad3

f: 268435455 0 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 266305*)

thanks for any help - ben
