thanks, todd. well, that didn't solve the mess I already had; finally I
created a ccd0a, leaving the first cylinder of ccd0c free, and created my
file system on ccd0a (I also had kernel panic after starting newfs on ccd0c
when I forgot to fdisk -i ccd0 after changing the size of wd1a and
configuring an interleave of zero...).
