  If you have a HD drive, fd0b will also do MS-DOS-1440k and fd0b will
also do 1760k.

  The msdosfs works quite nicely - I've mounted a hard disk partition
which I created on a Windows 95 system with no trouble.  I also took
a floppy which had files created on NetBSD-Amiga and was able to access
it on a Windows 95 system, and created a file on the Windows 95 system
which I was able to read back on NetBSD-Amiga.  The only problem I
had was that the NetBSD files were standard Unix ascii files with
newlines, and MSDOS/Windows doesn't deal with those very well.
