    I would use mount(8) instead: its output doesn't include any
    headers, but you'll still want to pass through only local
    filesystems, so it doesn't really matter:

    [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 1006:0 > mount | awk '/\/dev\/(ad|da)/ {print $1}' 
    /dev/ad0s1a
    /dev/ad0s1e
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ 1007:0 > df | awk '/\/dev\/(ad|da)/ {print $1}'   
    /dev/ad0s1a
    /dev/ad0s1e
