This device is an 8MB Flash Disk with a USB connector that attaches to your keychain like you car's alarm fob. When you plug this into your USB port it should act like an 8MB Disk Drive. I had hoped to use this to hold my SSH private key, my PGP private key, and a copy of Putty on an MSDOS Filesystem so I could have the keys and tools needed to access my systems remotely via SSH. When I plug the device into the USB port on my laptop the usbd sees it and loads the umass device. Then I get a drive entry: da0 but any attempt to access the device times out with a scsi sense error of 0x4. I'm in the midst of upgrading my laptop to 4.3 Release under the vain hope that the upgrade will solve the problem. However I wanted to know if anyone else has tried this device and what luck they may have had. -- Chris Hilton chilton-at-vindaloo-dot-com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "All I was doing was trying to get home from work!" -- Rosa Parks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
