I would have expected the same, but both DriveSetup and the /dev hierachy
insist on the path I wrote in the mail, no clue why ...
Actually under /dev/disk/ata/0/master I have four entries:
0 1 2 raw
which by coincidence ;-) actually matches my partition layout
0 -> EISA Configuration (empty) required by FSC remote service or whatever
...
1 -> Windows Vista (don't kill me - need UMTS)
2 -> designated partition for Haiku if I ever manage to actually get it
initialized
Btw, I also tried to (install) boot BeOS from CD on this laptop to use the
BeOS tools to fix the partition, however this of course failed, since BeOS
doesn't like USB cd-rom ;-( and the laptop has no built-in optical drive (its
actually slimmer and lighter than the MacBook Air ;-)
