You are best off forgetting about partition tables. Instead, figure
out where the beginnings and ends of the partitions are (maybe on the
original machine with its disklabel tools) and then copy those
sections of the disk onto new partitions of the same size on another
disk.

In any case, there is zero chance that anything from the 80s that has
ffs on it has a MSDOS FDISK partition table. You're better off using
disklabel(8) and hoping you can find a BSD-type disklabel.
