Can I mount my extended MS-DOS partition?

FreeBSD Handbook
Yes. DOS extended partitions are mapped in at the end of the other ''slices'' in FreeBSD, e.g., your D: drive might be /dev/da0s5, your E: drive, /dev/da0s6, and so on. This example assumes, of course, that your extended partition is on SCSI drive 0. For IDE drives, substitute ad for da appropriately if installing 4.0-RELEASE or later, and substitute wd for da if you are installing a version of FreeBSD prior to 4.0.

Why won't the Installer utility recognize and mount my NetBSD partition?

Installation and Upgrade
Older versions of the Installer (and the NetBSD kernel) only check the first 8 partitions for NetBSD-style partitions. If you have a lot of partitions on your drive (including the partition map and driver partitions), it could be that your NetBSD partition falls beyond the first 8. So, the Installer won't recognize it. Try re-ordering the partitions on your drive and see if that fixes the problem.

How to mount a real HD FAT partition with the FAT.handler?

AROS Research Operating System
First you'd need to read the drive's geometry and write down some values. You can use HDToolbox or linux fdisk for that. The BlocksPerTrack value is taken from the sectors/track value. Note that it has absolutely nothing to do with the physical disk geometry - FAT only uses it as a multiplier. If you get the Cylinders eg from HDToolbox or using the Linux fdisk like this: sudo fdisk -u -l /dev/hda, Then you'll need to set BlocksPerTrack=63.

FAQ on CD-ROMs
Back to ToC An utility called ISOnoHFS, written by Sauro Speranza, must be launched before inserting the CD-ROM. The Macintosh then mounts the ISO 9660 partition.
