I have tried mounting it with 'mount -t msdos /dev/ad0s5 /mnt', but only to get a 'Device not configured' error. Second, I'm having difficulty getting my mouse to work properly in X. It works in the console, but when I load either kde or gnome, the moment i move the mouse the slightest bit, it jumps to the topleft corner of the screen, sometimes opening a menu on the desktop. It does not respond to mouse clicks, and moving the mouse does not do much. It is a USB MS Intellimouse optical. I have also tried using a generic ps/2 mouse, but I get the same error. Any ideas?
