did you already try to access da2 instead of da2s1?
Yeah, tried that early on, got the same result. root@warehouse:/backups/postgres-02/info # mount_msdosfs /dev/da2 /usb2 mount_msdosfs: /dev/da2: Invalid argument
But just to be fully sure: This is a USB stick / thumb drive, right?
Yes. It's one of several thumb drives that were mounted in the back of some linux machines at remote sites we help a customer with. The client is unsure what was on them, but needs to know. We asked them to gather them up and stick them into usb ports on a freebsd machine we have access to and manage at their location (in another state). Most of them I got mounted as either msdosfs, or ufs, or ntfs, or extfs2, and was able to get the data off them. This thumb drive is one of two holdouts.
