try kldstat and see if da.ko is listed. if it isn't, try kldload da
the problem is that while the machine see the usb device attached, it hasn'=
t
loaded the driver for the disk, hence the absense of anything in dmesg abou=
t

da0...

good luck. oh, the module might not be called da.ko exactly, but it will
have a
similar name. i'm not at my fbsd box now.
