I'm running -current as of a couple of days ago (using the GENERIC kernel). I have this disk layout:
~> fdisk ******* Working on device /dev/ad0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=232632 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=232632 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 12 (0x0c),(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT (LBA)) start 63, size 10474317 (5114 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 651/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 12 (0x0c),(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT (LBA)) start 10474380, size 20964825 (10236 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 652/ head 0/ sector 1; end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 3 is: sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 31439205, size 62910540 (30718 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63; end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 4 is: sysid 15 (0x0f),(Extended DOS (LBA)) start 94349745, size 140140287 (68427 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63; end: cyl 1023/ head 83/ sector 63 First question: how to find out what is inside that extended DOS partition? And devd has created these devices for me: ~> ls /dev/ad* /dev/ad0 /dev/ad0s2 /dev/ad0s3a /dev/ad0s3c /dev/ad0s5 /dev/ad0s1 /dev/ad0s3 /dev/ad0s3b /dev/ad0s4 So it seems to me that /dev/ad0s5 ought to be the right place to look for my FAT32 partition inside the extended DOS partition: ~> mount_msdosfs /dev/ad0s5 /mnt mount_msdosfs: /dev/ad0s5: Invalid argument Second question: how to mount that partition? -- Two cafe au lait please, but without milk. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
