Hey. I used just disklabel -i with my RZ23E disk. I created only
two partitions, and I think they didn't occupy the whole disk,
but they worked. Newfs, mount, copy stuff... no problem. Except
that my system didn't fit in that disk, so I just tried copying
some 50 megs to it and then forgot about it.

Disklabel -B seemed to work, but I couldn't boot from that disk,
so probably it didn't do things right.

No Device not Configured anywhere...

How exactly did you try it? What commands?
