#  Hi,
#  
#  I managed to put a label on sd0, my smaller drive.  I then put a filesystem
#  on it, no problem, I am using it fine now.  But I am still getting "device
#  not configured" when I try to use the other one.  The kernel seems to see it
#  just fine, and it's in the disktab.  Any ideas?

Make sure you have entries for it in /dev.  You will also get "device not
configured" if you do something like try to dd to /dev/sd1a if you haven't
labeled that disk yet.
