You can use 'disklabel -e' to set an unused partition (eg wd0f) to
the MSDOS area of the disk, then use 'mkdir /msdos ; mount -t
msdos /dev/wd0f /msdos'
For example, my disklabel is:
6 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg]
a: 403200 1048320 4.2BSD 1024 8192 11 # (Cyl. 130 - 179)
b: 403200 1451520 swap # (Cyl. 180 - 229)
c: 3177216 1048320 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 130 - 523)
e: 2370816 1854720 4.2BSD 1024 8192 11 # (Cyl. 230 - 523)
f: 1048320 63 MSDOS # (Cyl. 0*- 130)
