>From `man disklabel`: disk Specify the disk to operate on. It can be specified either by its full pathname or an abbreviated disk form. In its abbreviat- ed form, the path to the device, the `r' denoting "raw device", and the slice, can all be omitted. For example, the first IDE disk can be specified as either /dev/rwd0c, /dev/wd0c, or wd0. Tim Donahue
