It's ad8s2b from our earlier conversation.

2. Name: ad8s2b
   Mediasize: 2147483648 (2.0G)
   Sectorsize: 512
   Mode: r1w1e0
   rawtype: 7
   length: 2147483648
   offset: 19327352832
   type: freebsd-ufs
   index: 2
   end: 41943039
   start: 37748736

I see it's labeled as freebsd-ufs. AFAIK I created this file system with
sysinstall.

Do I need to change the type? Any special instructions?
