Hi I'm new to ubuntu and linux so this might be a very begginers question. I have several partitions on my pc and I want to be able to access them with the console. When I type:

sudo fdisk -l

I get:

/dev/sda1   *        2048    97656831    48827392    7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2        97656832   234375167    68359168    7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda3   *   234375168   312500223    39062528   83  Linux
/dev/sda4       312502270   625141759   156319745    5  Extended
/dev/sda5       312502272   318359551     2928640   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda6       318361600   625141759   153390080   83  Linux

But it seams that the address is existing. for example I cant do cd /dev/sda4. How can I access the partitions with the console?
