One other question: When I run the second script, the dd command complains:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/${d1} bs=512 count=79
dd: /dev/ad0: Operation not permitted

The script is still running (doing the synchronize step), but what does this dd failure imply, as far as the final outcome is concerned?

I also noticed some fdisk errors from both the first script and the second script:

fdisk: conflict with open slices
fdisk: failed to write sector zero

The first script ran to completion and these errors appeared to be benign, but I'm curious if this is something I should be looking into?
