Hi not really a bsd user, but assuming linux similarities.

You must be root to mount drives (guffaws of laughter from my fellow co-workers
when I say this)

for the c drive try
mount /dev/hda0 /mnt
(note, no type specified)

similarly for the floppy
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt

for the lexmar jump drive, if its anything like a zip drive, partition 0 is not
the partition to mount
mount /dev/da4 /mnt
see what happens with this last one, and let me know.
