Hi,

I'm attempting to add a second partition (not including swap) to my
filesystem.  It seems that although my Mac partitioning software
recognizes the partition, disklabel does not.  I've heard that a couple of
things are "broken" with disklabel.  Maybe it's part of the problem.
Anyway, here's the info:

Partitions read with MacOS Silverlining software:
	
	Apple 			(partition map)		31k
	Macintosh_SL		(Driver434)		32k
	root&usr		(UNIX_SVR2)		185606k
	Swap			(UNIX_SVR2)		20480k
	Free Unix slice 3	(UNIX_SVR2)		220000k
	Big Bad Disk		(HFS)			640994k

Partitions as appears with disklabel (sd1c):

# /dev/rsd1c:
type: SCSI
disk: SCSI disk
label: fictitious
flags:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 139
tracks/cylinder: 4
sectors/cylinder: 556
cylinders: 3835
rpm: 3600
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0		# milliseconds
track-to-track seek: 0	# milliseconds
drivedata: 0 

7 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize   cpg]
  a:   371212      128    4.2BSD        0     0     0 	# (Cyl.    0*- 667*)
  b:    40960   371340      swap                    	# (Cyl.  667*- 741*)
  c:  2134305        0    unused        0     0       	# (Cyl.    0 - 3838*)
  d:       64       64   unknown                    	# (Cyl.    0*- 0*)
  e:        1  2134288   unknown                    	# (Cyl. 3838*- 3838*)
  f:  1281988   852300       HFS                    	# (Cyl. 1532*- 3838*)
  g:       64       64   unknown                    	# (Cyl.    0*- 0*)


I'm attempting to add the "Free UNIX slice 3" partition.  Anyone know of a
reason why disklabel isn't picking it up?  

By the way, what does "slice 3" represent?  I can guess on this one, but
I'm not sure.  Can anyone answer this one?  

Thanks for the help,

Jon
