Ludwig Pummer:
 |I know the FAQ says how to mount extended DOS partitions under FreeBSD (it
 |says I should see wd0s4..7 in my case). But I don't see those entries under
 |/dev and the mount command won't mount the partitions. When I first
 |installed FreeBSD, I was able to get it to automatically mount wd0s1 (DOS
 |drive C:, mounted to /mnt/msdos_c/), but it wouldn't accept any drives in
 |the extended partition.

cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV wd0s5
sh MAKEDEV wd0s6
