If I understand what you are trying to do correctly, it is possible to
do this (partial jumpstart profile follows):

filesys c0t0d0s0 4096 /
filesys c0t1d0s0 1024 swap
filesys c0t0d0s7 free

The disk is then sliced up and c0t0d0s7 is not mounted anyhwere, so I
claim you could then use /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s7 as the raw partition you need.

Does that help?
