Hello,

        On my DEC 3000 / 800, I have an RZ25 hard disk that I am trying
to access the disklabel. Here are the results when I try to read the
disk label.

# disklabel -r rz2
Bad pack magic number (label is damaged, or pack is unlabeled)
# disklabel -e rz2
Bad pack magic number (label is damaged, or pack is unlabeled)

I even tried to erase the label according to the man page for 'disklabel'.

# disklabel -z rz2
Bad pack magic number (label is damaged, or pack is unlabeled)

Has anybody gotten the problem resolved in the past?

Summary
-------
disklabel -rw rz2 rz25

Thank you for your quick replies:
