Denis,
Make sure there is a floppy disk in the drive before running the
command. Also, I think the actual command is "mount_msdos" not
"mount_msdosfs". :-)

I don't think it is a hardware problem. I have the same laptop (currently
out of the office). It has a Linksys EtherFast 10/100 Integrated PC Card.
When I was dual booting with Win98 and Mandrake9.0, the card worked fine
with both OS. I changed to Win98 and FBSD4.7. The card still works under
Win98
Check the man pages for "write" and "talk."
