Partitions in AUX

[George Drettakis]

I have a MacII running AUX and a new 20 MB SCSI disk that has 4 partitions on it.
I used dp (1M) to change the parition (DPM Index 3) type to Unix File System, 
and apparently the whole disk is called /dev/dsk/c1d0s31. 
What I cant understand is how the "slice" number relates to the DPM parition 
index so that one can get mkfs to work and subsequently mount the file system. 
Am I missing something essential ?
