Hi, Great to see your reply,
I would like to explain you in detail, I am currently writing a java code which tries to find out the total physical storage of an OpenBSD machine. Infact I would like to know the complete partition table in an OPenBSD machine. I have gone through the disklabel and fdisk command but both these command take the device name as a parameter. So my first question would be to know all the devices which are attached and may or may not be mounted. Once this is obtained, I would run the above commands to get the information about each device. Or Is there any option which would directly give the complete physical storage information.
