with "more, but not enough", i mean this:
On FreeBSD the dive is recognized by the system, as Dmesg shows something like this:
(The above dmesg is actually from my newly installed OpenBSD, but its very similar (if not even exactly the same)
and usbdevs shows:
But it stops there, the only device I get in FreeBSD under /dev is "sd0", nothing more.
In OpenBSD, I can actually use disklabel and create a new partition, BUT, when i want to mount it, this is what I get:
So, drive recognized, I'm able to partition (obviously), but not able to mount the disk.
Allthough, maybe this is just something I have missed, but I don't know what that could be.
Edit:
YES! I was stupid and missed one vital thing...
After using disklabel, I maybeshould have used newfs.. (Here I miss a smiley with a big hand comming and smacking the forhead)... BAH!
Well, after waiting forever for OpenBSD to run newfs on my 250 GB disk, it now works.. just the way it should.
I just wish that it fould work under FreeBSD (7.0) as well, But OpenBSD is anyway better than Linux (IMHO).
Now I'm finally happy again! Thank you, and sorry for beeing a bit stupid.
