	Ok, perhaps this is one time where the newbie (me) should just
bite his tongue before potentially making a fool of himself, but here
goes.  When you write to a windows partition from OpenBSD, the OpenBSD
kernel clearly knows about the changes, but how does the Windows partition
know about them?  In all my experience mounting msdos partitions they were
always read only.  Just my two cents worth.
