I cannot get my 650 meg free space partition to mount...
I have my SE/30 diskspace set up as follows:

~125 meg root&usr
40 meg mac partition
20 meg swap
650 meg free unix

When I do a df, I can see:
 / (/dev/sd0a)
 /kern (kernfs)
and /proc (procfs)

# disklabel /dev/sd0c reveals that the label is fictitious and that:
        size            offset          fstype          cylinders

a:      257212          96              4.2 BSD         0*-469*
b:      36864           257308          swap            569*-650*
c:      1660299         0               unused          0-3673*
d:      81920           300316          hfs             664*-845*
e:      2               1660297         unknown         3673*-3673*

and
disklabel: boot block size 0
disklabel: super block size 0

So, it appears that I have unaccounted for cylinders from 846-3672.

I originally partitioned the disk using Apple HD SC Setup for A/UX 3.0 and
I did a mkfs on the free unix partition using the mkfs utility included
inthe MacBSD utils.

So, I don't know:
What partition the free space is under or even where to look to find out.

Any suggestions?  I really don't want to reformat and reinstall, cause
binaries take FOREVER to compile...

TIA

Ben
