It is a repeat of a previous post..
 
I have NetBSD-1.1 (i386) running on a Dell machine with 1.6Gb
eide disk. Before intstalling the system, three partitions were
made using pfdisk:
  1. DOS (100Mb)
  2. NetBSD (800Mb)
  3. NetBSD (700Mb)
 
since the system was/is installed in partiton 2, is there a way
to make file system on partition 3 and mount it under the file system
OR I have to have single partiton of 1500Mb?
 
Any pointers will be appreciated.
