fdisk and mount

Hello, does anyone know if it is possible to see, under /dev, the changes
made by fdisk without restarting devb-eide?
I tried to umount /dev/hd1 and that resulted in that all hd1txx disappeared.
Is it possible to mount /dev/hd1 again
to see the ‘new’ partitions?

regards, Mats P

mount -e should do what you are looking for.
(ie mount -e /dev/hd1 after you have made your changes)
