Thanks to those who replied (and are yet to reply) especially the
following :

alan_at_nabeth.cxo.dec.com (good first name......)
and
Knut.Hellebo_at_nho.hydro.com

The main problem was that I could'nt write an initial disklabel to disk.

This was solved by the following command

disklabel -rw rzb2 hsz40

I didn't know that the hsz40 was in /etc/disktab (hang my head in
shame) :(

Then it was a simple matter of recovering the correct disklabel from
a file with this command

disklabel -R rxb2 diskrzb2

Now things are hunky dory...

Again Thanks
