Hi,
After googling and searching in the mailing list archive I still can't figure out how to make device nodes in -current when devfs doesn't do this automatically. I have an external USB-drive (external 3.5" case with leftover
1.6 GB HD) from which I want to mount /dev/da0s4h. It works fine in -stable, after MAKEDEV'ing the node, but on -current I only get da0s4.
Have you tried mounting da0s4h? It may show up in /dev after mounting it.
Using disklabel on the external USB drive shows some warnings:
phys9911# disklabel da0s4 # /dev/da0s4: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 72513 63 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 b: 269892 72576 swap c: 3324825 63 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit d: 131544 342468 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 e: 49896 474012 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 g: 716688 523908 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 h: 2084292 1240596 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 disklabel: partition c doesn't start at 0! disklabel: partition c doesn't cover the whole unit! disklabel: An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system utilities
My experience is that these warnings can be ignored as long as the drive will mount.
