depends on your filesystem and partitions

mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 mnt
mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0 mnt

well something like that
mount(8)

if you want to do this as user you have to
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/usb-disks.html

as usually everything in handbook

@wokko:

DragonFly BSD was forked from FreeBSD 4.8 in June of 2003, by Matthew Dillon.

We're at FreeBSD 8.0, and almost seven years after the fork. Maybe you should try DragonflyBSD forums or mailing lists?
