Wow. I did not expect to get bombarded with responses!

Thanks to all!

In summary, there were many variations of piping
prtvtoc output to fmthard. Some examples are as
follows...

##############
Example 1
##############
label one disk, let's say /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2, then do
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2 | fmthard -s - <every other
disk>

##############
Example 2
##############
for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ; do
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s2 | fmthard -s -
/dev/rdsk/c2t0d$is2
done

There were other suggestions which included using
perl. Let me know if you want them.

Thanks.
