I think the N/A should be "extended partition". At least, my disk has
four slices ("partitions" in rest-of-the-world speak), of which the
first 3 are windows, linux ext3 and linux swap and the fourth is
FreeBSD; and I can mount the FreeBSD (sub-)partitions under linux as
/dev/hda5, /dev/hda7 etc. (/dev/hda6=FreeBSD swap)
I'm not sure how this works if the FreeBSD slice were the first on the
disk, though.
