I can recreate the same error message by trying fsck on a file system before
associating a slice number with that partition.
Do you have an /etc/ptab file? What's in it? Do the slice numbers in
/etc/ptab match what's in /etc/fstab? Do the extra drives show up if you
try pname without any arguments?
