Does DEVFS/SLICE support MSDOS Extended partitions? Running a
devfs/slice-enabled kernel doesnt present me with the mountpoints I've
been using with a "regular" kernel:

[morden|root] 22:35 ~ mount

...
/dev/wd0s1 on /c (local)
/dev/wd1s1 on /d (local)
/dev/wd1s5 on /e (local)
...

[morden|root] 22:35 ~ fdisk wd1

******* Working on device /dev/rwd1 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=620 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl)

parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=620 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 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 6,(Primary 'big' DOS (> 32MB))
    start 63, size 2048193 (1000 Meg), flag 0
	beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1;
	end: cyl 253/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 5,(Extended DOS)
    start 2048256, size 1024128 (500 Meg), flag 0
	beg: cyl 254/ sector 1/ head 0;
	end: cyl 380/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 3072384, size 1927296 (941 Meg), flag 80 (active)
	beg: cyl 381/ sector 1/ head 0;
	end: cyl 619/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 4 is:
<UNUSED>

Thanks,

Kris
