HTH,
DaCa.

That's it, exactly! Thanks Danny, precisely what I was looking for. It's the same as fdisk, disklabel -E but disklabel -dn somehow sums up everything to me (thanks Nick). The truth of the matter is I misunderstood the disklabel man page. I was concerned with CHS boundaries and was messing about CHS values when I shouldn't. Still, the faq gets better and more comprehensive with every release and that's a real plus. Thanks everyone for the help and feedback.

Consider problem solved. My bad.
