Thanks for the pointers. Here is the relevant part of the output from
'gpart list ada0s4':
4. Name: ada0s8
Mediasize: 41943040000 (39G)
Sectorsize: 512
Stripesize: 0
Stripeoffset: 162529280
Mode: r0w0e0
rawtype: 131
length: 41943040000
offset: 46143188992
type: linux-data
index: 1430498
end: 172043415
start: 90121368
So I put into my /etc/fstab:
/dev/ada0s8 /u01 ext2fs ro,noauto 0 0
But when I issue 'sudo mount /u01' I get:
mount: /dev/ada0s8: Invalid argument
What am I doing wrong?
