Looking back over some of your e-mails I find: QUOTE su-2.05b# disklabel -r /dev/ad6s1c # /dev/ad6s1c: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 156344517 63 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit e: 156344517 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 89 partition c: partition extends past end of unit disklabel: partition c doesn't start at 0! disklabel: An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system utilities partition e: partition extends past end of unit That doesn't look good. ENDQUOTE The 63 offset is spurious. I've seen this before somewhere but can't remember the details -- i.e the value 63. I wonder whether editing the label and setting both offsets to 0 might solve the problem. You could always make a copy of the existing label and put it back if the changes don't help. You could in addition check the size for the partitions against the size given by fdisk for the slice.
