Generally speaking, linux relies on its users to not do things unless
they know what they are doing. If you don't believe me try logging in
as root and typing "rm -rf /usr".(in case you don't know, that will
foobar your system and likely force you to re-install from the
beginning)

Usually, Linux just shoves stuff in BSD-style slice tables on the end
of the partition table. In my case, ad0s4a is hda11, ad0s4b hda12,
and so on.
For recent 2.4 kernels, dmesg should have a line o
Hi,
I've got a computer multibooting Slackware 9.1 (Linux 2.4.24), FreeBSD and
DragonFly.
What I want to do is to mount one or two of my FreeBSD/DragonFly-slices in
Slackware.
/dev/hda1 corresponds to FreeBSDs /dev/ad0s1.
What does Linux call, for example, /dev/ad0s1a?
