There is an interaction between MBR and disklabel location. If you have a MBR that specifies a NetBSD partition starting at some sector N the disklabel will be stored/searched at sector N + LABELSECTOR (where LABELSECTOR is typicaly 1). So it is inside the NetBSD MBR partition (not in the MBR itself). Martin
