How do you recognise a raw partition ?

[Winstonb]

Hello,

Other than manually editing /etc/vfstab, how could you recognise whether a system has a slice defined as a raw partition ?

Thanks

You can become superuser and run the format command to look at the partitions.
Select disk you want to review
Then select partition and then print.
slice 2 is always the whole drive.
