  The NetBSD floppy driver only knows about the Amiga floppy track
format.  You either have to use an Amiga track format (if it's even
possible with CrossDOS or whatever; and completely useless if you
are trying to transfer data from an MSDOS system) or add support to
the floppy driver to deal with MSDOS track format (which I think
someone has done - check on ftp.uni-regensburg.de).

  I've got a partition on one of my hard disks that was created on
a Windows 95 system, and it mounts quite nicely on NetBSD-Amiga, so
the msdos filesystem does work OK.
