The following is a 'catch *everything*' approch. There are "less-drastic" ways, bud you don't provide enough information to determine what short-cuts are possible. *FIRST* _shut_down_ the machine. Next, remove the USB device. Now, turn on the machine and boot into FreeBSD. Do an 'ls -l' of the /dev directory. save the output to a file in your home directory. Plug in the USB device. Did you get system log and/or console messages about a new USB device? (if not, you may be missing USB device suport from the kernel0 Again, do an 'ls -l' of the /dev directoy. Save the output to a *differnt* file in your home directory. Look for device entries that are mentioned in _this_ list, that are *not* in the list you got when the USB device was not connected. *THOSE* are the possible devices for the 'mount' command you are trying.
