Having trouble mounting USB devices

E

eldoraado

I have connected on USB hard drive and one Memory Stick

Code: 
# dmesg | grep usb
usbus0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> on uhci0
usbus0: 12Mbps Full Speed USB v1.0
ugen0.1: <Intel> at usbus0
uhub0: <Intel UHCI root HUB, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1> on usbus0
Root mount waiting for: usbus0

ugen0.2: <Generic> at usbus0
umass0: <Generic USB TO IDE Bridge, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2> on usbus0
Root mount waiting for: usbus0

ugen0.3: <USB 2.0> at usbus0
umass1: <USB 2.0 Flash Disk, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 3> on usbus0

Trying to mount the memory stick it gives me an error

Code: 
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/ugen0.3 /mnt/usb/
mount_msdosfs: /dev/ugen0.3: Block device required

What am I doing wrong? The partition of the flash disk is FAT.
 
ugenX.Y isn't the drive. It's just a generic USB device. You need to get a /dev/daX (where X is a number).

Are you using the GENERIC kernel?
 
I suppose these are my USB devices in /dev folder:
da0 da1 da1s1

Code: 
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/da1s1 /mnt/usb/

This worked... but I can only mount onde device.
 
I tried a different USB HDD
Code: 
# dmesg |grep usb
usbus0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> on uhci0
usbus0: 12Mbps Full Speed USB v1.0
ugen0.1: <Intel> at usbus0
uhub0: <Intel UHCI root HUB, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1> on usbus0
ugen0.2: <Western Digital> at usbus0
umass0: <Western Digital External HDD, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.75, addr 2> on usbus0
Root mount waiting for: usbus0

But I dont know how to mount it. The lising on the /dev directory is following:

Code: 
 ls /dev/

The drive is not recognzid properly.
Could you please report this problem on the usb@freebsd.org mailing list?
 
I've the same problem.
uname:
Code: 
FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT
dmesg:
Code: 
ugen0.2: <Western Digital> at usbus0
umass0: <Western Digital External HDD, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.75, addr 2> on usbus0
Root mount waiting for: usbus2 usbus0
Problem solved ?
 
Yes, CURRENT from cvs :)
Problem solved, it was in usb 1.1 in bios setup.
offtop: And now it's another problem: convert ~1.5Gb from ntfs into ext4, because rtorrent work badly with ntfs via fuse :)
