Some of you may remember me as the person who was wondering if FreeBSD
worked with Ontrack Diskmanager, well, it seems to now (partitions came up
fine and everything). 

Of course, I accidently deleted my Linux partition, getting the wrong
number, so I'd like to get FreeBSD on line quickly; unfortunately, I can't
install via PPP it seems, becuase the dialing options are /dev/cuaa1 and
/dev/cuaa2. 

Is there any possible way of getting a /dev/cuaa4 in there? I really don't
want to wste my time on this, and the install, ppp setup looked nice;

Somebody please help! =)
