Disk Paritioning Clobbered

I was following the suggestions posted here recently about using spare 'a'
partitions to hold backup copies of / So I did a dd from rz0a to rz1a
and, of course, clobbered the paritioning for disk rz1 (it was a different
size + had more partitions)
So, doing a 'chpt -q rz1' gives me the partition table for rz0 rather than the
one I set up for rz1. I can still access all of the partitions on rz1 and
df gives the proper filesystem sizes, so the correct data is in the kernel somewhere.
How can I flush it out to the disk?
Thanks
