The NTFS partition was created first, since WIndows snivels about that
sort of thing. What am I messing up?
From disklabel(5):
"By convention, the `a' partition of the boot disk is the root
partition, and the `b' partition of the boot disk is the swap partition,
but all other letters can be used in any order for any other partitions
as desired."
Try using a letter after c in the alphabet when creating your disklabel.
