Hi,
I've been battling this for some time, and I figured perhaps someone here
has done this already. I have a 60GB IDE drive in a firewire enclosure.
Works great w/FreeBSD. It's partitioned like so:
Offset Size(ST)End Name PType Desc Subtype
Flags
0 63 62- 12 unused0
63 94365747 94365809da0s1 8freebsd 165
94365810 22860495 117226304da0s2 7fat6
117226305 5103 117231407- 12 unused0
And I'd like to use one of those spare fdisk partitons (not a slice) on my
OS-X machine for backup purposes.
Maybe you are confusing the terms. fdisk makes slices not partitions.
Within a slice, disklabel makes partitions. Each of those pieces you
have listed above are slices.
Since Microsloth calls slices partitions, I am not surprised that
this is confusing.

The fat partition is left over from a
test to see if a newfs_msdos partition would mount on OS-X (it did).
Any idea on the partition ID for HFS?
From the little info I could find, OS-X/Apple has their own partition
table in sector 2, which is independant of the normal partition table.
Rather than delve into this further and confuse the issue, I'll leave this
at Has anyone done this?...
Thanks,
Charles
