I am trying to partition out my 2nd IDE drive and am having some problems..

I am running a system as follow: 80386 pc with 2 maxtor  7120 120m ide
 hard drives, patchlevel 0.2.2


Partition label info from wd0 as set up by 386bsd install:

3 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize   cpg]
  a:   232764        0    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16 	# (Cyl.    0 - 977)
  b:     9520   233002      swap                    	# (Cyl.  979 - 1018)
  c:   243474        0    unused        0     0       	# (Cyl.    0 - 1022)


I have set up wd1 as follows: 
6 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize   cpg]
  a:    49504        0    4.2BSD      512  4096    16 	# (Cyl.    0 - 207)
  b:     9520   234192      swap                    	# (Cyl.  984 - 1023)
  c:   243712        0    unused     1024  8192       	# (Cyl.    0 - 1023)
  d:    15946    49504    4.2BSD      512  4096    16 	# (Cyl.  208 - 274)
  e:    56168    65450    4.2BSD      512  4096    16 	# (Cyl.  275 - 510)
  f:   112574   121618    4.2BSD      512  4096    16 	# (Cyl.  511 - 983)

This is my fstab: 


# maxtor 7120 drive 0
/dev/wd0a		/	ufs	rw	1 1	
/dev/wd0b              'none'   swap    sw      0 2
# maxtor 7120 drive 1
/dev/wd1a		/p        ufs   rw      1 2
/dev/wd1b		'none'	 swap   sw      0 2
/dev/wd1f		/usr/local ufs	rw	1 2

and a current df: 
Filesystem           512-blks    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0a              223470  180754   20368    90%    /
/dev/wd1f              105101   29302   65288    31%    /usr/local
/dev/wd1a               14207     541   12245     4%    /p

Up to this point, I have had no problems with the filesystem.

Now I want to add /dev/wd1d as /ftp for an anon ftp directory structure

when I mount /dev/wd1d on /ftp  , it shows all the data from /dev/wd1a (/p).

if I rm -r the data in /ftp, it deletes everythng from /dev/wd1a - 
if I restore my dump of /dev/wd1a, it also shows up on /dev/wd1f 

Now am totaly wrong here, or should /dev/wd1a and /dev/wd1d be seperate
partitions on the drive?  they appear to be using the same area on the disk.
It seems odd, as using /dev/wd1a mounted on /p and /dev/wd1f on
/usr/local seems to work fine.


I would like to split this drive into multiple partitions. Have I done 
something total wrong with the label that I have set up  ? 

Any suggestions are appreciated.
