Xenix/386 used a single partition (slice) with multiple slices (partitions-- yes, their terminology was exactly the reverse of ours). I think these partition IDs, or at least their description strings, were for the Xenix that IBM sold for the PC-AT. I can't remember what ID Xenix/386 used, or if it was different. --jh -- Mr. Belliveau said, "the difference was the wise, John Hood, cgull intelligent look on the face of the cow."
