Greetings,

         I'm trying to edit the disklabel on a disk. I know I've done this
before without an issue, but now the edit's I make don't seem to be
sticking. what I'm doing is:

         1) disklabel -r /dev/rdisk/dsk26c
         2) The "C" partition is currently set to raw, I want it to be
unused so I can add it into and ADVFS domain
         3) disklabel -r -e /dev/rdisk/dsk26c
                 3a) once in vi, I change "raw" to "unused" for the "C"
partition
                 3b) save and quit
         4) disklabel -r /dev/rdisk/dsk26c
         5) I notice that the changes I made did not work.

         What am I missing?

         thanks,

         Paul
