How do, Something that's been vaguely bugging me with 2.0.5 and it's slice/partition scheme. I've got a DOS partition on my machine, with FreeBSD as the second OS. According to the documentation my various partitions should therefore be of the form /dev/sd0s2? where '?' is the partition name (first SCSI drive on the system). And this is what I see. /usr/ for example is mounted from /dev/sd0s2e. However, the '/' filesystem is mounted from /dev/sd0a, not /dev/sd0s2a. It works fine, but I was wondering why the discrepancy. I haven't spotted anything about this in the various READMEs, and was curious.
