That's a bit...small.

Add:

/dev/wd0f /dos msdos rw

after making the changes below.

Add a line after this

  f:    42993       17     MSDOS                        # (Cyl.   0* - 252)

Note that the offset is 17 (your sectors/track value) because DOS
reserves the first track on the disk for the partition table.

>Also, I have a second hd that's entirely dos.  How can I mount this as well?

There's a way, but I've never done it.  You need to create a tiny
NetBSD parition on the disk, which is barely large enough to contain
the disklabel.  Then you put your DOS parition in that disklabel.
