I brought the computer home with me.  Below is some of the system information.
I'm still stumped as to what to next...The disklabel all matches up correctly.
Anyone have any more ideas?

Thanks Again -- Dan Diephouse

disklabel wd0
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]

  b:   512000   153600      swap                        # (Cyl.    9*- 41*)
  c: 16354170        0    unused        0     0         # (Cyl.    0 - 1017)
