dmesg:

[...]
umass0:  on uhub1
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0:  Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device 
da0: 1.000MB/s transfers
da0: 194481MB (398297088 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 24792C)

These nodes are created:

# ls -1 /dev/da*
/dev/da0
/dev/da0s1
/dev/da0s1c

Then:

# mount /dev/da0s1c /media/disk6
mount: /dev/da0s1c : Invalid argument

# mount -t ufs /dev/da0s1c /media/disk6
mount: /dev/da0s1c : Invalid argument

Thanks.
