Fascinating. This error occurs when d_type is 0 in the disklabel. i.e. it hasn't been set to one of DTYPE_ST506, _ESDI, _FLOPPY, etc. As you seem to using vnd I would expect d_type to be set to DTYPE_VND. But somehow the disklabel you are reading does not have this field initialized. Do you know how the disklabel was created? ....
