	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)
