Why is 'disklabel'ng a new drive so difficult?

[Daniel Eriksson]

I've started using GPT for everything but the system disk.

To add a GPT table to a new disk and create a partition in that table
that spans the entire disk, all you need to do is this:

# gpt create /dev/adX
# gpt add /dev/adX
# newfs -O2 -U /dev/adXp1

Done!
