Subject:   Mounting win2k second partition

I have a disk with two win2k partitions (fdisk output included below).
When booting windoze both are reported as NTFS. However when I try
to mount them from FreeBSD I am only able to mount the first one.
I have tried using both msdos and ntfs mount on the second one with
no success. The error I get is "Invalid argument". Has anyone else
seen this or know what the problem / limitation is?

thanks
Isidor
