i dont think so for it defaults to the getdefault label AFAIK and thats the 
one i'm trying to modify. The number of sectors on the disc remain OK, its 
just the partitions itself that get overwritten/postprocessed. I can't seem 
to find the actual postprocessing done. In sys/dev/scsipi/cd.c ioctl code 
for get disclabel there is no copyout() so somewhere up in the tree will 
have to do the copyout...

Cheers,
Reinoud
