I managed to mount an MSDOS-formatted Syquest cartridge (SCSI)
under NetBSD 1.1 using (in my case):

mount_msdos -o ro /dev/sd2c /mnt/syquest

Afaik, this did not work with NetBSD 1.0.

The cartridge has one partition on it, and it was
formatted using a PC equipped with an
ADAPTEC hostadapter and corresponding drivers.
