Hi,

Great to see  your reply,

I would like to explain you in detail,

I am currently writing a java code which tries to find out the total
physical storage of an OpenBSD machine. Infact I would like to know the
complete partition table in an OPenBSD machine.

I have gone through the disklabel and fdisk command but both these command
take the device name as a parameter. So my first question would be to know
all the devices which are attached and may or may not be mounted. Once this
is obtained, I would run the above commands to get the information about
each device.

Or 

Is there any option which would directly give the complete physical storage
information.
