For all the years I have been working with NetBSD, it seems that I never
can get the knack of the "disklabel" command;  I always seem to be stuck
in a severe catch-22 with it.  And this doesn't just apply to the SHARK
platform, it happens on the sun3 and sparc as well.  In the following, I
will illustrate a problem I am having trying to install NetBSD-1.5
on an internal IDE drive.

1.  # disklabel -i -I wd0
2.  wd0: no disk label
3.  partition> W
4.  label disk [n]? y
5.  Label written
6.  partition> Q
7.  # disklabel -i wd0
8.  wd0: no disk label
9.  partition>

What the heck is going on here?  Absolutely none of the changes I make in
disklabel ever get committed to the disk.  I'm sick of this!  I can't
install anything because of it.
