Hi,

I've no solution until now but recognized that bsdlabel -A /dev/ad0s1a
outputs as following:

# /dev/ad0s1:
type: unknown
disk: amnesiac
label:
flags:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 255
tracks/cylinder: 16
sectors/cylinder: 4080
cylinders: 38323
sectors/unit: 156360582
rpm: 3600
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0           # milliseconds
track-to-track seek: 0  # milliseconds
drivedata: 0

8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  a:   524288        0    4.2BSD     2048 16384 32776
  b:  2045584   524288      swap
  c: 156360582        0    unused        0     0         # "raw" part,
don't edit
  d:   524288  2569872    4.2BSD     2048 16384 32776
  e: 153266422  3094160    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552


What I think that is weird is the value of type and disk.
On another computer it outputs type: ESDI and disk: ad0s1

I tried already to change the values, but it falls back everytime...
