I want to swap on to wd0s6 (an extended partition) shown as:
wd0s1: type 0x6, start 63, end = 1137023, size 1136961 : OK
wd0s2: type 0x5, start 1137024, end = 1753919, size 616896 : OK
wd0s3: type 0xa5, start 1753920, end = 2261951, size 508032 : OK
wd0s5: type 0x83, start 1137087, end = 1447487, size 310401 : OK
wd0<extended>: type 0x5, start 1447488, end = 1511999, size 64512 : OK
wd0s6: type 0x82, start 1447551, end = 1511999, size 64449 : OK


How do I construct a device to support this...the standard devices
