Hello,
I'm using 9.0 and the command below does not work, as far I remember
that worked fine with 8.2:
The goal is to copy an usb image from an OpenBSD host to an usb key on
my desktop via ssh.
On openbsd:
# cat ucop2.img | ssh patrick@xx dd of=/dev/da0 bs=10M
dd: /dev/da0: Invalid argument

dd with a bs= option tells dd to use read() syscalls with a 10mb

Try using a smaller blocksize (8k or 4k), or use a buffering
program like ports/misc/team or misc/buffer just in front
