Are you just trying to mount a floppy so you can access it...
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt
then cd /mnt to ls, cp , mv, etc.
make sure you umount it
other than do a search here...
http://groups.google.com/groups?group=mailing.freebsd.questions
or here is the freebsd site with mail archives and doc search...

Have fun, freebsd is great!
Terry
