I am using FBSD 2.1.0 and W95 on the same disk. For accessing W95 disks
from FBSD I use mount_msdos, although there were some reports that this
does corrupt the disk. Now I would like to access FBSD data from W95.

Can this be done (without com. software) and how?
Is there a better way to manage the former task than using FSBD 2.1.0's
mount_msdos? (Upgrading or something else?)

I hope that I not touching some new FAQs, the old I already checked.
Thanks,
	Axel Thimm.
