As of the last I heard, there wasn't support for such a beast in the NetBSD 
kernel.  Nate Williams says that the code in fdc.c on FreeBSD 1.1 has
been majorly re-written to do this.

While it could probably be hammered into NetBSD, it kind of clashes with
the 'multi-platform' flavor.  I'm not sure that something as completely
PC specific as a floppy tape drive would even bee a particularly good
addition to NetBSD.
