I also have a DOS partition I can't mount (not that I really care...)
There seems to be some sort of offset thingie going on that FreeBSD
doesn't know about.
I have three slices:
/dev/wd0s1 is DOS C: and can be mounted from FreeBSD.
/dev/wd0s2 is FreeBSD.
/dev/wd0s3 is DOS D: and can NOT be mounted from FreeBSD.
/dev/wd0s3 (aka D:) has NULs at the beginning where mountmsdosfs()
expects a boot sector. However, there seems to be a DOS fs at an
offset of 0x7e00 bytes (go figure) from the beginning:
hexdump -C /dev/wd0s3 | head -12
