Csupped and build yesterday:
$ uname -a
FreeBSD mobileKamikaze.norad 7.0-BETA3 FreeBSD 7.0-BETA3 #0: Tue Nov 27
20:53:17 CET 2007
root@homeKamikaze.norad:/usr/obj/TPR40-7/i386/usr/src/sys/TPR40-7  i386

Partition information:
/dev/ad0s3 on /mnt/msdos/software (msdosfs, local)
/dev/ad0s4 on /mnt/msdos/vault (msdosfs, local)

Actually I don't know any way of aquiring (<= how is this spelled?) useful
data about Fat32 partitions in FreeBSD.

Anyway:
mobileKamikaze$ strace -o ~/msdos.trace tar -xf php_manual_en.tar.gz
^C
