   Hi:

   I recently installed FreeBSD-2.2.1 to my system, I was wondering 
how to access my floppy drive, in dos its either a: or b: but do not
know the command in unix(specially in FreeBSD) of how to access the floppy
drive? Also, is there a way to access my dos files when I am running
FreeBSD, in other words the dos files located in my hard drive?
   Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thanks.
