Hi all

I have recently bought a IDE HDD casing which has a USB interface. This
comes with Windows drivers which allow me to see the first partition
(FAT 32 C: drive) as a normal drive. However, I can't see the extended
partition, or, of course, the FreeBSD partition.

Are then any plans in the works to support this kind of hardware under
FreeBSD? It would be great if FreeBSD supported this, and also allowed
all the partitions of various types to be accessed and mounted.

FYI the casing is made by a company called Datafab (www.datafab.com), and
has an ASIC chip with their name on it inside.

TIA
gram
