Short version: Is it possible to group existing partitions into slices
without affecting data?
Long version:
I had a disk sliced/partitioned like this:
ad4s1
ad4s1a
ad4s1b (swap)
ad4s1d
ad4s1e
ad4s1f
ad4s2 (storage)
ad4s3
ad4s3a
ad4s3b (swap)
ad4s3d
ad4s3e
Thomas, thank you for reply! No, it wasn't dangerously dedicated disk.
However, what is the exact command to add ad4s1 and ad4s3 using
bsdlabel? Is it possible at all? I thought I should use fdisk or
gpart for that.
Thanks,
Sergi M

You use fdisk to create what FreeBSD calls slices such
Thomas, thank you very much for your mail, but that isn't what I asked.
Of course, I know that bsdlabel -R ad0s1 new_label_file writes new
labels to ad0s1.
My question is: what to do if I _lost_ s1, s2, and s3 - how to recover
_them_ first? Without that, all I can do is to write labels table
