> how do i mount a dos drive on my pc running netbsd?

You need to teach NetBSD about the location of your DOS partition,
since NetBSD doesn't use MBR partitions for much.  Fortunately, we
have a script to do this for you.  To use it, run (as root):

	attach -n netbsd
	/mit/netbsd/bin/dospart
	mount /dosc

The DOS partition should be mounted automatically when you reboot.
