I copied kernel/kernel, and all files from /boot, and defaults/loader.conf. I get to the point where it fails to mount /, and just finds /dev/ad0 stuff (the flash disk). I did change loader.conf to say rootdev=disk1s1a (which I believe to be the usb disk). was this suppose to work ? I'll now copy the usb and umass modules to the flash disk (hope it will fit) and put on loader to load them as soon. if anyone has any hints, please :) thanks, matheus >>> > have >>> > known problems with the USB hardware, but I cannot tell if your model >>> is >>> > affected.
