Bug? Yes. And here are the results, with comments. While having that /dev/sda10 (FreeBSD slice) mounted as above, I used cfdisk and added /dev/sda10 Linux partition (right after /dev/sda9 of course). To my surprise, I discovered that after that df and mount do not show that FreeBSD /dev/sda10 mounted partition ! Magically disappeared :-) What would have happened (as I suggested it previously) if I put that FreeBSD /dev/sda10 in /etc/fstab ? That new Linux /dev/sda10 partition would be auto mounted at that mount point, which would presumably be a source of data for some system or user app ... Let me see what happens when I reboot my machine with the new /dev/sda10 Linux partition. Here are the results. # fdisk -l /dev/sda ...
