I posted the following message to "netbsd-help" but perhaps this is a better
forum to pose my question...

Greetings all,
I'm trying to mount a Sony memory stick floppy disk adaptor which has a
64MB mem stick in it (adaptor is labeled "MSAC-FD2M"). I really didn't think
this would work right off - which it didn't - but I'm wondering if its even
a possibility on 1.5.2-i386/Generic. I tried doing a 'dumpfs' on it with the
following results:
---
# dumpfs /dev/fd0a | head -n 25
fd0a: hard error reading fsbn 19 (st0 44<abnrml,top_head> st1 1<no_am> st2 0
cyl 0 head 1 sec 2)
dumpfs: /dev/fd0a: Input/output error
---
I'm wondering if there is some way I could find out enough info about this
disk adapter's FS to put together a workable "mount" profile. Having a
fairly shallow pool of knowledge regarding probing devices/file systems, I
thought I'd post this for some of the resident gurus to comment on  ~8^J>
Cheers,
