Subject:  Mounting a DOS filesystem

According to the docs I should be able to mount an extended DOS
filesystem with the :
mount -t msdos /dev/xxx <mountpoint>

When I try mounting my "D:" dos drive which shows up under BSD as
/dev/wd2s1 I get an error saying "invalid type".  The command I use is:
mount -t msdos /dev/wd2s1 /dos_d

Any ideas?

Thanks,
