Thanks a lot, Greg,
your guess was absolutely correct: /dev/hda2 showed up as an extended
DOS-partition in dmesg and in it were hda6 to hda9, all mountable as you
described, and those were my FreeBSD slices. Neat! BSD_DISKLABEL support
must be compiled into my 2.2.13 kernel, it's unmodified from a SuSE 6.3
install.
Problem solved!
