I think I saw similar thing at one point. That made me zap my FreeBSD and installed another Linux :-)
I thought Linus fdisk and kernel numbered these extended partitions/BSD slice in different order, if I remember correct. I do not even remember that was RH or debian. By the way, tool to hide free BSD partition? I think "fdisk" on Debian boot/root disk should be the one. If you use IDEPCI disk set, it requires 2 disks to boot Linus. (This is not interesting.) Well that is not real solution. Some boot loader has hiding feature for stupid DOS/WIN. They may be able to use it or hacked for this end. GRUB may do this. (After all GNU official swiss army booter) GAG had some self configuration but I forgot all.
