I have a gpt partitioned disk. ls /dev/dsk (and /dev/rdsk) gives: c0t0d0 c0t0d0p0 c0t0d0p1 c0t0d0p2 c0t0d0p3 c0t0d0p4 c0t0d0s0 . (skips s7) . c0t0d0s15
How do these map to the actual partitions? I followed the symlinks to /devices, they all point to the same location on the PCI bus (makes sense, same physical disk), with each just hitting a different letter s0-> sd@0,0:a s1-> sd@0,0:b ... ( skips s7 and sd0@0,0:h ) ... s15-> sd0@0,0:p p0->sd0@0,0:q .. p4->sd0@0,0:u 1- How do these map to the actual partitions? 2- The actual disk has partitions 0-7,9-17 (skipping the 9th from beginning), but /dev/dsk and /devices/ skip h and s7, or 8th from beginning (unless it ignores the 0th partition?) 3- What happens if I have 25 or 30 partitions, or more than the 20 listed here. EFI/GPT support it, format -e supports it, what would the /dev/dsk devices be?
