I'm doing a Penguinectomy from RedHat 7.1 to OpenBSD 3.1, and it looks
like BSD cannot handle an extended Linux partition (type 0x85); this
partition contains /usr, /var and /home. Searched the web for references
to this, and found all sorts of interesting things, but nothing applicable
here.
Here's the output of several commands:
gate# fdisk wd1
Disk: wd1 geometry: 19857/16/63 [20015856 Sectors]
Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55
Starting Ending LBA Info:

The "wd1i" partition checks out OK (it's the Penguin root), but I can't
seem to peer inside the extended "wd1j" partition to mount the partitions
within. Any ideas?
