Mounting a dos partition from the main drive was easy, but I don't know how to go about setting up the disklabel so that the second drive can be mounted. It's about 125 megs and fills the entire drive (wd1a). Any assistance would be greatly appreciated -- I have a reasonable grasp of unix in general, but the low level hardware setup seems to differ greatly from place to place ;). thanks in advance..
