Hi,

Im running NetBSD 2.0 on a i386. My question is can i mount an atari ST floppy 
disk on this machine. Ive tried the mount_msdos -G /dev/fd0a /mnt command but 
i get mount_msdos: /dev/fd0a on /mnt: Inappropriate ioctl for device.

ive tired fd0a to fd0i but i get the same error.

What i'm wanting to do is to create a byte by byte image of the disk. dd fails 
with a input/output error. Probably due to atari having a different msdos 
file system.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how i could get an image of these disks 
without having to get an ST? 

Thanks

Mark
