:hammerread does work now. But I haven't had success with disklabel64 -B
:yet. Btw, the manpage of disklabel64 doesn't mention that it can be used
:to write the bootcode. So what exactly would I need to do?
:
:   disklabel64 -r -B -s /boot/boot1_64 -b /boot/boot2_64
:
:Anything else?

    Just disklabel64 -B ...  it should select the correct boot1 and
    boot2 images automatically.

    The disklabel64 boot code only supports HAMMER the way it is
    currently set up.  It wouldn't be too hard to make it support
    both UFS and HAMMER as there is plenty of room available for
    boot2 to do both, but some reworking of the ABI would be needed
    to avoid symbol duplication.
