Howdy, I recently bought a system with a single 4 gig SCSI disk which I
divided into 4 partitions, with the intent of installing win95, linux,
freebsd, and netbsd, each on its on 1 gig partition.  When I booted
freebsd 2.0.5, its fdisk didn't see the partitions linux sees.  DOS
fdisk doesn't see them either.  What gives? Thanks.
