I don't know how--or if--Linux has a way to refer to those partitions. The FreeBSD notation would be ada0s1a, ada0s1b (swap), ada0s1d, ada0s1e. "c" refers to the whole disk, not an individual partition. > There's still the multi-boot issue. How to boot FreeBSD and Linux. Grub can do it, as can others. Can't speak to the details, though.
