I just purchased a WD MY Book external USB disk, I reformatted in UFS and
created a filesystem with sysinstall. I was able to put data on it successfully,
however overnite I had a power failure. Now I am unable to mount the
drive. The blue light is on, so it seems to be getting power but the

After yesterdays fiasco trying to upgrade 5.5 to 6.2 - I just grabbed a new
drive and did a clean install of 6.2
Its working great, no errors I'm happy-
There are some files (basically some custom config and cf files) that I
would like to copy from the 5.5 drive -
So I put it in an ex

Is it possible to boot FreeBSD from external USB drive?

boot from USB.
If so, can you provide me some reference as on how to do the installation?
Thanks in advance,

I faced the exact same problem recently with my 250GB
iOmega external harddisk with a single FAT32 partition
which I needed mounted on my FreeBSD 6.0 Release
system. I needed this to be mounted "rw", so the
MSDOSFS_LARGE option was no help. After some
cajoling, iomega folks confirmed that partit

Hi,
Thanks, do you have a usbd.conf entry that does this? I'm also seeing my
cd-roms moving, they use scsi emulation and whenever the drive goes in they

Thanks.
Dave.

create a fstab entry for this drive so that when it is connected

I have the same problem with USB flash drive, the kernel recognizes it, but sometimes
it works, sometimes not with the same messages:

The device works fine under Win2k/XP, so i'm sure, that this is not a hardware problem.
