To be more specific, I have narrowed my entire problem down to not being
able to disklabel the wd0 properly.  I do not have a disktab entry for
the drive I am using (Micropolis 1355 170Mb ESDI) and I am not sure how
to make one, although I do have a pretty complete set of specs from
Micropolis on that drive.  Any assistance would be much appreciated.
