When you plug in the USB drive, lines should be appended to the dmesg of the kernel identifying the device - or any errors. Please post that.

The handbook says I need these:
device scbus
device da
device pass
device uhci
device ohci
device usb
device umass

You may need ehci if this is USB 2.0, but I think it would otherwise fall back on either ohci or uhci.

Scanning dmesg for usb, I get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 17:32:22 (0) /usr/src > dmesg | grep usb
usb0: <UHCI (generic) USB controller> on uhci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0
usb1: <UHCI (generic) USB controller> on uhci1
usb1: USB revision 1.0
usb2: <UHCI (generic) USB controller> on uhci2
usb2: USB revision 1.0
usb3: <UHCI (generic) USB controller> on uhci3
usb3: USB revision 1.0
usb4: EHCI version 1.0
usb4: companion controllers, 2 ports each: usb0 usb1 usb2 usb3
usb4: <Intel 82801GB/R (ICH7) USB 2.0 controller> on ehci0
usb4: USB revision 2.0

See comment above on dmesg. You don't get all the relevant info by grepping for usb.

The results from usbdevs:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 17:34:11 (0) /usr/src > sudo usbdevs
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
 addr 2: USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse, Logitech
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
addr 1: EHCI root hub, Intel
 addr 2: iAUDIO X5, Cowon Systems, Inc.

Is that with the device plugged in? If so, seems logical that there is no device in /dev because it is not found.

Cheers, Erik
