Hmm...

Depends:
If your existing file system needs its last sector, then it wont work. If it
does not need it, then it might work (although fsck does not check for a
raw-device shrinkage - I think)...

I say, can you make the size of ad0s1f one sector bigger with bsdlabel(8)
without changing the start sector?
I mean: Is there at least one free sector after ad0s1f?
