Hi there,
Is there a easy way to partition and label a second hard drive. I got 
FreeBSD 2.1.0 up and running from a 1Gbyte SCSI. Now I want to add a second 
SCSI drive 4 Gbytes. But I have a hard time trying to do this because there is 
no manual. What should I run  to partition this nre drive to conatin the 
following partions:
-  100M bootable, with boot image of sd0 in case sd0 dies.
-  100M of swap space.
-  1.8G of /usr1
-  2.0G of /usr2
I tried to read the man page of fdisk, disklabel and scsi and could not make 
anything useful out of it. Some body out there must have done this already.
I have another system that run BSD?OS (the other BSD) and they have a command 
call disksetup and it works wonder, is there an equivalent in FreeBSD.

Thanks in advance
BTW- Both scsi drive are recogized during boot up. one is Fujitsu the other one 
is Seagate.
