I'm trying to mount a WD "My Book" external usb hard drive, and am having a problem. My system: uname -a FreeBSD opteron.foo.bar 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #2: Wed Jun 11 21:20:59 IDT 2008 root@opteron.foo.bar:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL i386 camcontrol devlist <PLEXTOR DVDR PX-716A 1.08> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (pass0,cd0) <WD 5000AAC External 1.65> at scbus4 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass1) Gnome 2.22.1 from /var/log/messages: Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron kernel: umass0: <Western Digital My Book, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.65, addr 2> on uhub4 Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x1058 product 0x1100 bus uhub4 Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron kernel: da0: <WD 5000AAC External 1.65> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-4 device Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron kernel: da0: 40.000MB/s transfers Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron kernel: da0: 476940MB (976773168 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 60801C) Jun 11 21:59:34 opteron kernel: GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider da0s1 is msdosfs/My Book.
