Huh? It does for me(!)  No usbd, no zip250 recognition; yes
usbd, yes zip250...  OS is 4.3-stable as of 15 July 2001.

& with usbd running, connect zip250 & then "camcontrol
rescan ..." works just fine...

What's Still Not Working is an Olympus USB digital camera.
It is supposed to appear as a SCSI device with a MS-DOS
filesystem (& indeed does with Linux, with kernel 2.4.x).

Try that with FreeBSD & not only does it not "mount" but it
crashes (freezes) the OS, without even so much as a
panic/dump/trace.  :(
