Hi,
If I understand correctly, FreeBSD supports Extended DOS partitions/slices. Unfortunately, The logical volumes under such a slice(ad6s4) never showed up in my system (8.0 then 8/stable amd64).
Do I need to do something special to make this work?

Code:
# fdisk
******* Working on device /dev/ad6 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=969021 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl)
Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=969021 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 63, size 96389937 (47065 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1;
end: cyl 1023/ head 15/ sector 63
The data for partition 2 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 96390000, size 57207024 (27933 Meg), flag 80 (active)
beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
end: cyl 1023/ head 15/ sector 63
The data for partition 4 is:
sysid 5 (0x05),(Extended DOS)
start 153597465, size 823170600 (401938 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
end: cyl 1023/ head 14/ sector 63
