The system let me modify the fstab to mount the floppy drive using mount_msdos & mount the CDROM as well. But I am unable to access the second harddrive which accroding to the boot should be wd2. The point of this setup is to be able to boot a msdos or freeBSD system by adjusting the SYSTEM SETUP. What I really need to do is be able to transfer files back & forth from the msdos system running windows 95 and the freeBSD system. I prefer to work on the local system as opposed to working on my remote WEB server over the internet which at times can be slow. I will then package the modification and send the changes to the sites instead of working on the sites directly.
