One of the messages contain the rev level like 2.00/1.10. Is this info being retrieved from the USB stick? Is there a Freebsd command to show this information? Is there some way under ms/windows to display this info to compare to what the probe message says? Trying to figure out why I can boot off one USB stick and not another one i have. I dd a wim98 floppy image to both.
