I am using this (previously sent to me) and I have one issue which I am not sure if its a FreeBSD or u-boot problem. If I do not interrupt the 10 second u-boot countdown then the usb device fails to attach on the FreeBSD host, this is because FreeBSD times out on setting the usb address for the u-boot device. Anyone else having this issue? Andrew
