I have formated a 650M Dynatek drive with the "50% A/UX, 50% MacOS" model with
Silverlining. This gives 9 partitions. Using "dp" I get

Command? p3
DPM Index: 3
Name: "A/UX Root", Type: "Apple_UNIX_SVR2"
Physical: 109134 @ 128, Logical: 109134 @ 0
Status:
        valid   alloc   in_use  not boot
        read    write
Slice 0 (clustered)
Regular UNIX File System (1)
Cluster:   0    Type: RUFS      Inode: 1

Umount: [672106284] Fri Apr 19 20:11:10 1991
No AltBlk map
Command? p6
DPM Index: 6
Name: "Unreserved 1", Type: "Apple_UNIX_SVR2"
Physical: 580000 @ 152270, Logical: 580000 @ 0
Status:
        valid   alloc   in_use  not boot
        read    write
Slice 3

Cluster:   0    Type: FS        Inode: 1

Now, you must link the physical partition on the disk to a disk devices

pname -a -c2 -d0 -s1 "Unreserved 1"

this will create /etc/ptab making the link "Unreserved 1" <-> /dev/dsk/c2d0s1

now you can mount the partition:
  1) add the following line in /etc/fstab

/dev/dsk/c2d0s1        /mnt    4.2     rw 1 2

  2) mount -a
