How could SSH possibly be the problem. If you had FreeBSD installed
before and it saw the drive, which is my understanding from your
previous email to the list, then you had SSH installed before because
ssh has been in the base install for quite a while.

You listed the symptoms of your problem and your interpretation of them,
could you now post your dmesg, fstab and rc.conf to the list so we can
actually help instead of just listen to you describe your problem?
