I figured it out! I think /dev/sda2 is my swap. It seems /dev/sda3 is the
partition I just created. I rebooted and ran df and everything was there.
Then a thought happened (a rare thing) and I umounted the devices and they
were no longer shown with df. so I learned something new. or perhaps I just
relearned it.
