As it turns out - my usb adapter was defective. Once I used an
operational adapter all the devices appeared and the disk works like a
charm!
Thanks for your input.

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.
Not really. I do something like mount -t <filesystem> /dev/da0 /mnt
Then I'll check /dev/da* and viola there is /dev/da0sX, you get an error
when trying to mount /dev/da0 "Device not configured"
I'm running FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #0:
Wondering how I would go about mounting this drive - right now it's
an old
FreeBSD drive which I just want to wipe.
