Hello,
I trying to use disklabel to read the info from an extended dos partition
so that I can mount half of a second IDE drive under 386bsd.  

I'm having troubles with the syntax (of disklabel) that will allow me to
do this.  Could someone that posted this advice before explain in 
greater detail?

-Loren
