Thanks. So Linux starts numbering BSD slices after it's done with its own partitions. I presume that if you create sda10, the slices'll start at sda11... > But, the stuff I documented in a later thread under "Re: FreeBSD Drive Support > ??" should not be allowed. I assume that you're referring to: <begin> # mount -vf -t auto /dev/sda2 /media/ /dev/sda2 on /media type auto (rw) # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on ... /dev/sda2 14420896 7413796 5541976 58% /media # mount ... /dev/sda2 on /media type auto (rw) # ls -al /media total 8 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Mar 17 15:54 . dr-xr-xr-x. 23 root root 4096 Mar 14 14:01 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 14 14:01 .hal-mtab </end> I'd say that your mount and df commands are confused given that the only thing in "/media" after the mount is ".hal-mtab".
