Greetings,
   I have multiple os's on a single 8.4GB hdd.  The problem that I have run 
into is that I am able to access the dos partition (wd0s1) and the 
FreeBSD partition (wd0s2) is accessable of course.  The problem is that
all my other partitions reside in an extended partition (wd0s3).  

   I want to be able to access my Win95 partition (wd0s3 first logical 
partition) and my 2 linux partitions (wd0s3 logical drive 3 and 5) and once
I get it installed the Solaris pratition as well. (will be wd0s3 logical 6)_

   Is there any way that I can access the data in this extended partition?
If so... how.  

System information:
OS: FreeBSD 3.0-BETA (updated via cvsup this morning 9/27)
HDD: IBM 8.4GB

Anything more just ask please.  Thanks in advance

Mark
