yes raw is a slice you never newfs'ed or mounted. I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.

On our machine, we have created a 50Mb partition on one of our disks. This slice is referred to as c0t1d0s1 (i.e. the 2nd slice on the 2nd disk of our 1st disk controller)
I'm not sure, but I think once you create a "slice" on a disk, this is your raw partition.

You're quite right,
when you use the format command to create a partition,
the result is the raw partition you require. Do not run
newfs or anything on it, sybase will use it as it is.
You might need to change the ownership and/or the
permissions of the raw device file to the sybase user.
