I seems that my Partition Numbers all change after boot up.
On my hard drive these are my partitions
hda1 Windows
hda2 Debian /boot
hda3 Freebsd
Freebsd "virtual partitions"
<hda5 hda6 hda7 hda8>
hda4 extended
hda9 unused Linux partition
hda10 Debian swap
hda11 unused Linux Partition
hda12 Debian /root
I use these numbers in lilo and fstab
and also if I hit df I get this
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda12 1748120 1177776 481544 71% /
/dev/hda2 1101272 4016 1041312 1% /boot
/dev/hda1 4210204 3513856 696348 84% /windows
But when I run dmesg I get this in partition check
hda: hda1 hda2 hda3 hda4 < hda5 hda6 hda7 hda8 >
hda3: <bsd: hda9 hda10 hda11 hda12 >
so basicly the freebsd and logical numbers get switch.
I have to use these numbers to mount partitions or format partitions.
Does anyone know why the partitions numbers get "switched" like this.
I can work around this but I don't want my partition numbers changing around
like this.
I have UFS read-only support and FreeBSD partition table support and
unixware support compiled into my kernel.
