Bonjour à tous,
J'ai deux problèmes à vous soumettre, rencontrés dans la traduction de 
EVMS (Enterprise Volume Management System) User Guide
1er problème :
Comment traduire "drive link"? "lien de disque"??

**********************************************************************
This chapter discusses the EVMS DRIVE LINKING feature, which is 
implemented by the DRIVE LINK plug−in, and tells how to create, expand, 
shrink, and delete a DRIVE LINK.
DRIVE LINKING linearly concatenates objects, allowing you to create 
larger storage objects and volumes from smaller individual pieces. For 
example, say you need a 1 GB volume but do not have contiguous space
available of that length. DRIVE LINKING lets you link two or more 
objects together to form the 1 GB volume.

2ème problème
Est-ce que cela a un sens de traduire "slices" par "tranches" ici? Et 
comment traduire "slice table" et "disk slice"?

BSD segment manager
BSD refers to the Berkeley Software Distribution UNIX® operating system. 
The EVMS BSD segment manager is responsible for recognizing and 
producing EVMS segment storage objects that map BSD partitions. A BSD 
disk may have a SLICE table in the very first sector on the disk for 
compatibility purposes with other operating systems. For example, a DOS 
slice table might be found in the usual MBR sector. The BSD disk would 
then be found within a disk SLICE that is located using the 
compatibility SLICE table. However, BSD has no need for the SLICE table 
and can fully dedicate the disk to itself by placing the disk label in 
the very first sector. This is called a "fully dedicated disk" because 
BSD uses the entire disk and does not provide a compatibility SLICE 
table. The BSD segment manager recognizes such "fully dedicated disks" 
and provides mappings for the BSD partitions.
DOS Segment Manager
The most commonly used segment manager is the DOS Segment Manager. This 
plug-in provides support for traditional DOS disk partitioning. The DOS 
Segment Manager also recognizes and supports the following variations of 
the DOS partitioning scheme:
OS/2: an OS/2 disk has additional metadata sectors that contain 
information needed to reconstruct disk segments.
Embedded partitions: support for BSD, SolarisX86, and UnixWare is 
sometimes found embedded in primary DOS partitions. The DOS Segment 
Manager recognizes and supports these SLICES as disk segments.
