from "Boot Troubleshooting" doc:
Boot Blocks/Loader Issues bsdlabel -B /dev/ad0s1
When i run this command, this error occurs:
bsdlabel: cannot open provider /dev/ad0s1 for writing label: Operation not permitted bsdlabel: Try to use gpart(8).
How can i solve the problem?

sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16

Are you booting from that drive while you try to modify it?
Or are you booting from CD?
You'll have to boot from something else to make that work, I believe.
