 |I'm almost certain you can run 'fdisk slice', where "slice" is the slice 
 |containing the extended partitions.
 |
 |Eg. like this:
 |# fdisk ad0s4

Unfortunately, this prints nonsense.  The first line in the output reveals
the likely cause:

   fdisk: can't get disk parameters on /dev/ad0s4; supplying dummy ones

Thanks anyway,

Randall
