Hi, I have a disk with a fat32 partition, to which on of my friends running
Windows 2000 moveds some data onto.

Apparently he made the partition as an extended partition, is this a
problem, because I cant mount it:

freebsd-rulez# mount_msdos /dev/ad0s1c /data
mount_msdos: /dev/ad0s1c: Invalid argument

Im not quite sure which device to use, but I also tried /ad0s1[acdef]

fdisk:
******* Working on device /dev/ad0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=7473 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)

Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=7473 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)

Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 15,(Extended DOS, LBA)
    start 16065, size 120037680 (58612 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 1/ sector 1/ head 0;
        end: cyl 1023/ sector 63/ head 254
The data for partition 2 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 3 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 4 is:

disklabel:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  c: 120060864        0    unused        0     0        # (Cyl.    0 -
7473*)

Anyone?
