Sender: questions-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi, I have successfully gotten my MS-DOS (primary) partition to mount under FREE-BSD. The problem I have is that when I try to mount the MS-DOS (extended) partition, I get an error like that slice is an invalid option. Also under the FDISK program it does not indicate that partition to be an MS-DOS partition (even though it is). What do I need to do to get that mount? Also, how do I get the drives to mount automatically? Also, any help with mounting other types of file systems like HPFS, or NTFS? Any help would be appreciated... Seth A. Covitz seth@cmu.edu
