	Is there a way to read DOS diskettes in the floppy device on a
sun4? It is possible to read the disk straight through, as in looking
at the blocks themselves, but unix can't read the dos file allocation
table, or find it for that matter. So, does anyone know of a shell or
program that will allow unix to read dos diskettes and be able to
manipulate files on dos diskettes? Any help appreciated.
			Thanks in advance
