Hi, I've been trying to mount a partition from a FreeBSD 5.3 slice but I cannot (better said I don't know how to) specify that certain partition. In FreeBSD it is /dev/ad0s1f bunt in linux there is no such device as /dev/hda1f as I expected. Furthermore I tried to specify to mount only the device there was, /dev/hda1, hoping that the partitions inside the slice would be automaticly mounted within the mount dir but "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on dev hda1, or too many mounted file systems" it says. Well, how do I do it? (I really need tih piece of info), Thanks. Alex.

what does fdisk -l display?

This may help: 9.29 UFS 98% of the population is asleep. The other 2% are staring around in complete amazement, abject terror, or both.
