After boot -s with ums unplugged, I can fsck if necessary and then mount-a, installworld, etc. with no problems. I can even plug in the mouse, not that it helps because I still have to unplug it when I repoot after mergemaster. I have never experienced a panic or other crash related to USB devices. Only the boot lockup. /Joe
