Yes, mount will tell you, it should look like this:
inof@hermes:~> mount
/dev/da0s1a on / (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 3 async 247336)
/dev/da0s1h on /usr (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 7 async 92294)

No, that's the plain mount that comes with the system.

What version of FreeBSD are you using, exactly? Did you run
tunefs while the partition was not mounted? Do you have the
