Original question is enclosed bellow.
I have repartitioned disc in following steps and mountaded fs in following steps
1. disklabel -e /dev/rrz27c to make all partitions unused
and than
2. disklabel -e rz27 to label, according to new requirements.
3. newfs /dev/rrz27x to construct a new fs
4. mount /dev/rz27x /dir.name
Best regards
-MIlan
