In the mean time, I've re-learned to work with bootable memory sticks. I've had no luck yet with ReWritable CDs which I need for all boxes but one. Perhaps a blanking problem? Here is the summary of my trials in Fixit mode for my Sony DSC-P10 which is also (at last) the answer to Jeremy's message: 7.2-RELEASE-i386-livefs: OK 8.0-RELEASE-i386-memstick: OK FreeBSD-8.1-STABLE-201009-i386-memstick: AutoSense failed FreeBSD-8.2-PRERELEASE-201012-i386-memstick: booting OK, but "No USB devices found!" CAM status: SCSI Status Error SCSI sense: UNIT ATTENTION asc: 28,0 (Not ready to ready change, medium may have changed) da0: 1915MB (3922944 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 244C) GEOM: da0: media size does not match label. FreeBSD-9.0-CURRENT-201009-i386-memstick: AutoSense failed Is it not a case for send-pr(1) ? Best regards, Harald
