Thanks for those responded / replied via e-mail. I finally got it
working on my FreeBSD box.

While I had understood what `device file' is meant to be, my
FreeBSD-1.1.5.1 did give me a yell when I,
root# cp /dev/fd0 DriveA
cp: /dev/fd0: invalid argument
cp: /dev/fd0: invalid argument
I suspect that this is due to some internal bug(s) that resides in the
kernel; EINVAL is so observed when a system call failed in number of
occasions.
Anyway, following the suggestions given by other people, I was able to
duplicate the boot floppy using dd(1).
Following is the modification I made to `cpu.h' so that you won't have
to feed `-DLITTLE_ENDIAN' to your compiler explicitly; defining the
symbol makes your compiler otherwise complain about it being multiplly
defined.

Hope this help others as well.
People I owe credits; thanks again for your help.
