Florin,
Much better to use mtools. As root with your Internet connection running:
# cd /usr/ports/emulators/mtools
# make install clean
After install:
# man mtools
Will get you operation instructions.
A mounted MSDOS floppy that developes a "disk error" can cause a
perfectly healthy FreeBSD system to crash, with mtools this possible
crash will not happen :-)
