Hi,

	I searched the archives, but could not find answer to the
question I have. 

	I have an openbsd disk, and I want to be able to access the files
on it from my FreeBSD-4.7 system. disklabel gives me error:
disklabel ad0 gives: "disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Invalid argument"
I am only able to mount the root slice using
/dev/ad0s1 (command: mount /dev/ad0s1 /obsd ). I get same results  if I
mount /dev/ad0s3 to /obsd.

	Is it possible at all to be able to access (readonly is okay)
the openbsd partitions (/usr /home etc.) from freebsd ? 

Thanks
Amit

P.S.  The disklabel command from openbsd does print out the 16 partitions:
/obsd/sbin/disklabel -r /dev/ad0
# using MBR partition 0: type A6 off 63 (0x3f) size 10233342 (0x9c25fe)
