 I'm having the same problem, but I'm wondering about an alternative
 workaround. Is it possible to remove all partitions, only leaving
 ``c'', so that geom will only attempt to add the whole disk and not
 any other partition as well?
 
 For example, I have:
 
 atlas% sudo bsdlabel /dev/stripe/gs9
 # /dev/stripe/gs9:
 8 partitions:
 #=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 size=C2=A0=C2=A0 offset=C2=A0=
 =C2=A0=C2=A0 fstype=C2=A0=C2=A0 [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
 =C2=A0 a: 2500527423=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 16=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=
 =A0 4.2BSD=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 2048 16384 28552
 =C2=A0 c: 2500527439=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 0=C2=A0=C2=
 =A0=C2=A0 unused=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=
 =A0=C2=A0 0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 # "raw"
 part, don't edit
 
 Can I remove the ``a'' partition, only leaving ``c'', so that geom
 only tries to add /dev/stripe/gs9 to /dev/concat/gc9, and not
 /dev/stripe/gs9a as well?
 
 GEOM_CONCAT: Device gc9 created (id=3D3563333761).
 GEOM_CONCAT: Disk stripe/gs9 attached to gc9.
 GEOM_CONCAT: Device gc9 activated.
 GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider stripe/gs9 is ufsid/4aece8d6fd9650d6.
 GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider stripe/gs9a is ufsid/4aeceb954b2a81d6.
 GEOM_CONCAT: Cannot add disk ufsid/4aece8d6fd9650d6 to gc9 (error=3D17).
 
 I appreciate any responses. Thank you!
