]did you try /dev/wd1e, without a s? component?

As far as i remember, i tried all the combos i could think of. Mounting
/dev/wd1a worked, but then mounting /dev/wd1e didn't. I believe it said
'incorrect superblock number'. I think mounting /dev/wd1s1a worked, but
then mounting /dev/wd1s1e or /dev/wd1e didn't.

Fortunately, i got the new disk set up so i can't check right now, but 
could probably try things later if anyone comes up with something that
i don't think i tried already.
