Ok, with little confidence it would work, since I could find no very good 
info on USB & FreeBSD, and there was no response to my query on the subject, 
I decided in a "what the hell" moment to get a USB drive and see what 
happened.

I have a LaCie 80G drive.  It was $250 for 80, USB 2, and if it works it 
should be pretty darn cool.

It is recognized by the kernel, so I thought I was doing pretty well, but 
when I try to actually do anything with it, I run into trouble.  Here are 
some messages from /var/log messages, first hte successful boot stuff and 
then the failure messages:

The set of error messages above were returned when I did a simple

dd if=/dev/da0



On the other hand, I *can* actually do an fdisk and it will at least tell me 
that I have an 80G drive, so clearly *some* level of i/o must be working.

Any ideas?  Please?
