I understand that the maximum number of partitions per slice is 8, but I
can't seem to get all 8.

When I installed FreeBSD 4.1 RELEASE, I was only able to create this mouting
scheme:

/dev/ad0s2a on / (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s2d on /home (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s2g on /tmp (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s2e on /usr (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s2h on /usr/src (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s2f on /var (ufs, local)

That's 7 to me (with swap...hmm, but with the all-encompassing "c" partition
that does bring everything to 8). When I tried creating other partitions, I
got an X next to them in disklabel.

Is there something I'm doing wrong?=20
