Could you post the output of `mount`? I've once had troubles too with
mounting fat32 partitions since the slice-numbering often turns out to be
different from what you might expect.

For moused in console use:
"moused -p /dev/ums0"
or set the appropriate values in /etc/rc.conf.
For X use:
"Options" "Protocol" "Auto"
"Options" "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
see `man 5 XF86Config`.
This should get the USB mouse working in both X and the console.
