Sorry you couldn't find this in a FAQ, I sent a submission for entries
for this a long time ago and kinda forgot about it.
Anyway, what you need is to use disklabel to mark the underlying
partitions as "4.2BSD". No need to create filesystems on them
individually, but as Rob says, you need to run newfs on them after
ccdconfig.
I should probably write a handbook chapter on this too.... ;)
