No. Actually, as John-Mark Gurney has pointed out, your change seems
to let "disk label" part of the disk get overwritten, and you get
"BTX Halted" or similer kind of error while tring to boot.
Please see the following post (url) and its related thead.

For my case, I had to somehow boot system up, and do 'bsdlabel -B' to
get system into working condition, again.

Thank you,
 Haro
