9.1 on x86_64.
No doubt this question has been asked before, but how do I mount logical
partitions (e2fs) under FreeBSD? I have checked the handbook, and
DuckDuckGo'ed, but without finding anything useful.
The third slice on my first disk is a physical one, and will mount
happily under FreeBSD.
>From /etc/fstab:
/dev/ada0s3 /Mail ext2fs rw 0 0
But I have a couple of logical partitions (also ext2fs) in the fourth
slice, which I have been trying, unsuccessfully, to mount.
For information, here is the BSD view of the disk:
$ sudo fdisk
******* Working on device /dev/ada0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=310101 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl)
Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=310101 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 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 131 (0x83),(Linux native)
start 2048, size 24576000 (12000 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 0/ head 32/ sector 33;
end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 24578064, size 44040150 (21503 Meg), flag 80 (active)
beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
end: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 131 (0x83),(Linux native)
start 68618240, size 958464 (468 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63;
end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 4 is:
sysid 5 (0x05),(Extended DOS)
start 69577576, size 243002520 (118653 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63;
end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63

Now here's how Linux sees it:
$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes, 312581808 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Can anyone provide a pointer please?
