	Yay 10.1.0.2.  10.1.0.2 has been known to stomp disk labels.
This is a known bug, and is already fixed.  It'll be in the next update.
	You're going to have to relabel the disk.  Your ASM data is
perfectly fine, just the part of the disk where "ASMDISK1" was stored is
currently a bunch of zeros.  So, use the "renamedisk" argument to
/etc/init.d/oracleasm, and you're off and running.  Sorry about that.
