Hmm,

this seems to be the cause here:

# /dev/ad8s2:
type: unknown
disk: amnesiac
label:
flags:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 57
tracks/cylinder: 117
sectors/cylinder: 6669
cylinders: 20473
sectors/unit: 136534437
rpm: 3600
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0           # milliseconds
track-to-track seek: 0  # milliseconds
drivedata: 0

16 partitions:
#          size     offset    fstype
  c:  136534437          0    unused    #   66667.206MB
  d:  136534437          0    4.2BSD    #   66667.206MB
