Hello, I have a USB Drive that was working fine under 7.3, but since updating to 8.1 no longer has the correct /dev entries. Under 7.3 it was da0s1, in 8.1 there is now only da0 and da0a, which shouldn't exist..
# fdisk /dev/da0 shows: ******* Working on device /dev/da0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=121601 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=121601 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 63, size 1953520002 (953867 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 768/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: <UNUSED> The data for partition 3 is: <UNUSED> The data for partition 4 is: <UNUSED> Which is correct, and thus should result in a s1 in the dev tree.. # bsdlabel /dev/da0 shows: # /dev/da0: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 1953525152 16 unused 0 0 c: 1953525168 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit I don't think there should even be a label at that level.. # gpart list shows: Geom name: da0 fwheads: 255 fwsectors: 63 last: 1953525167 first: 0 entries: 8 scheme: BSD Providers: 1.

The dmesg output for the device is: umass0: <MSC Bulk-Only Transfer> on usbus4 umass0: SCSI over Bulk-Only; quirks = 0x0000 umass0:0:0:-1: Attached to scbus0 da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <SAMSUNG HD103UJ > Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 40.000MB/s transfers da0: 953869MB (1953525168 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 121601C) There is also an error message during boot, which I'm not sure if it's related but says: usbd_set_config_index: could not read device status: USB_ERR_SHORT_XFER Any ideas on how to correct this problem?
