First unmount /dev/md0s1a, or the device /dev/md0s1 will be in use, and
opening it for read/write (as bsdlabel probably does) will fail.

Alternatively, you can turn on the "footshooting" debug flag in geom:

     Protection mechanisms in the geom(4) subsystem might prevent boot0cfg
     from being able to update the MBR on a mounted disk.  Instructions for
     temporarily disabling these protection mechanisms can be found in the
     geom(4) manpage. Specifically, do a

           sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=0x10

     to allow writing to the MBR, and restore it to 0 afterwards.

and try again.  This may not work as expected though. :)
