I am attempting to clone a drive by connecting the prospective "copy"
drive via usb. I've just recently upgraded to FBSD 8.2

Here is what I get when I insert the drive;

Jun 18 14:36:29 3s1 kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0

I notice that the /dev/da0s1.. entries are gone now from my /dev directly
(maybe this is part of the upgrade to 8.2) so all I have in /dev is
/dev/da0

My first thought was using MAKEDEV but that is redundant now I understand.

I also read that mounting drives via usb have to be done with the -a msdosfs
option because they are seen as SCSI drives.

Wondering how I would go about mounting this drive - right now it's an old
FreeBSD drive which I just want to wipe.
