I'm going through something similar, although I have FB on a SCSI drive
and NB on an IDE drive. I can see an MSDOS portion of the IDE drive
with NB, and an MSDOS partition of the SCSCI drive with FB, so I copied
files with this 3 step method. I also can mount the /usr partition of
the NB system as a partition under FB and write files that way.
FreeBSD complained about the disklabel and would not allow me to see
the NetBSD root partition, but I guess it liked the /usr one well
enough...
