I am curious where is this slice stuff documented.
On my system, which I suped and "make world" on saturday.
MAKEDEV does not create a /dev/wd0s5 so I created one. When I tried
mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s5 , the system claims that the device is not
configured. Fine, so I went down the list till /dev/wd0s1 which seems to work
on my system over here.
This is what I have on my system:
brw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 131074 Jun 12 18:56 /dev/wd0s1
brw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 196610 Jun 12 18:56 /dev/wd0s2
brw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 262146 Jun 12 18:56 /dev/wd0s3
brw-r----- 1 root operator 0, 327682 Jun 12 18:56 /dev/wd0s4
