What you are looking for is related to extended DOS partitions. Try using wd0s5 (Note the slice number = 5, not 2 for extended partitions.) -- Regards | _/\_/\ Andrew Johns BSc (Comp Sci) | / \ TurnAround Solutions Pty Ltd | \_...__/ http://www.turnaround.com.au/ | \/ "The box said 'Requires Windows 98, NT, Linux or better' so I installed FreeBSD."
