But it's a bit complicated. No other way?

I didn't understand prtconf output format, but "parted /dev/rdsk/...
print" shows correct information:

# parted /dev/rdsk/c0t600144F008A8470000004EF4418A0004d0 print
...
Partition Table: gpt

Number  Start   End     Size    File system  Name
    Flags
 1      17.4kB  134MB   134MB                Microsoft reserved
partition  msftres
 2      135MB   5498GB  5497GB  ntfs         Basic data partition

How can I get this volumes as separate block devices to be able mount them?
