I have a usb memory stick whose filesystem FreeBSD will not mount
because it is 'dirty'.  It is dirty because it was removed from the
FreeBSD host it was connected to.  I would would like to recovery this
device if possible but my attempts to do so using fsck and fsck_ffs
never start because it cannot find a SUPERBLOCK.

newfs -N gives a list of alternate sb location but fsck_ffs will not
acept them.

Is there any way to manually turn ff the dirt bit and mount the device?
