/dev/da0s1 has gone missing freebsd 8

I have been using this build of freebsd for about 3 months and my mount has never given me any problems except one-even when i put enable user mount in /etc/rc.conf it still doesnt allow. Also, more to teh point, recently my usb device-da0s1-is missing-its just not there...what could have caused this and how can i fix it?
 
The usb issue could be any number of things
(Enough usb drivers loaded, enough power to the device
if a hard disk, enough "cli" if a flash drive), maybe
post more information about the usb device, the
usb drivers you have loaded, the commands which have failed...
 
User mount of disks has fooled a number of people. You need to have these things in order:
1. the ...usermount sysctl (sorry if I cannot remember exactly what it is) set to 1. sysctl -a |grep usermount Should find it.
2. Read-write access to the device node.
3. Ownership of the mount point. Read-write access to the mount point is not enough.
If you have all those things correct, you should be able to usermount the filesystem.
