    I got around this particular problem by formatting the disk using the=
 PROM
commands.  In this case, "scsi fm 1".  While there may be other ways to d=
o it,
that nuked the disklabel.
    BTW, I tried to mention this earlier, but it didn't reach the list.  =
The
32M-diskimage doesn't contain rzboot and bootrz.  It would be rather hand=
y if
it did.
