>Description:
During sysinstall disklabel fails to create a label on an empty disk, it seems to work if a previous label exists on a disk.
If the disk is empty, disklabel fails with 'input/output' error.
I exited sysinstall into command line and ran:
disklabel -w -r -f /tmp/disktab sd0 'mydisk'
this gave me 'input/output error'
so I ran the same command again, on the 2nd run is succeeded.
