X-Mailer: VM 6.34 under Emacs 20.2.2 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, On a disk I have a FreeBSD slice containing several filesystems. The slice is within a DOS partition scheme. There is another primary partition that I'd like to use as an extra filesystem, but only sometimes; at other times I want to use it for DOS or other purposes. Is it possible to add a second slice with disklabel on a disk, where another slice already exists? -- /\_/\ ( o.o ) Peter Mutsaers | Abcoude (Utrecht), | Trust me, I know ) ^ ( plm@xs4all.nl | the Netherlands | what I'm doing.
