You have to create the directory first

cd /mnt
mkdir floppy

I will start by saying that I read man mount and tried to use the
command listed in the example, since it seemed like that was what I
wanted to do:

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0a mnt/floppy

I get an error stating that there is no such directory or file as
"/mnt/floppy."

How do I mount a floppy on an Open BSD 3.0 system?  TNX, Dennis
