Hi i hope i can get some help..

Below i has included the output from disklabel and fdisk
for my scsi-disk who has one extended partition and thou
has a "logical partition" as from what i know. In windows
a extended partition can have several "logical partitions"
thisone only got one.

How do i mount it ?

Thanks for your time
