Hi,

	From my reading of src/sys/dev/isa/fd.c, it seems that on
NetBSD/atari, we need to mount different "partitions" of the floppy device
depending on the density of the floppy disk.  In particular:

	360K	--->	mount -t msdos /dev/fd0a /mnt
	720K	--->	mount -t msdos /dev/fd0b /mnt
	1.44M	--->	mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c /mnt

Is this correct?  Why is the atari density-to-partition mapping different
from the other NetBSD platforms?

	Please reply directly as I'm not subscribed to this list.

	Thanks!
