First, shutdown any relevant deamons (syslog, mysql), then, copy everything, preferably with rsync -av, then do a mount command like:
Be sure to restart your daemons afterwards.

When mounting a USB stick or pen drive on a FreeBSD machine I always issue the following command:

I would probably set all my rubber points here to get some real help for creating a boot device on a usb-stick. There is no CD-drive on this machine, thats why I need to use a usb-stick. And scrumming in a CD-drive to fuddle around in the fstab or something like that is out of reach.

libperfuse
LIBPERFUSE(2) BSD System Calls Manual LIBPERFUSE(2)NAME
perfuse_mount, perfuse_open -- Request a puffs(3) mount from perfused(8)LIBRARY
library ``libperfuse''
SYNOPSIS
#include <perfuse.h>
int
perfuse_mount(const char *source, const char *dir, const char *filesystemtype, long int mountflags, void *data);
int
perfuse_open(const char *path, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
perfuse_mount() sends a mount request to perfused(8). It is intended as a drop-in replacement for mount(2) for FUSE file systems daemons and
libraries, so that they can work with perfused(8).
The function prototype mimics Linux's mount(2), with the following arguments:
source The source file system that will appear in df(1) and mount(8) listings. Defaults to /dev/fuse if NULL.
dir The file system mount point.
filesystemtype
The file system type, as displayed by df(1) and mount(8). Defaults to ``fuse'' if NULL.
mountflags
This contains the same value as a mount(2) flags argument.
data This contains the same value as a mount(2) data argument.
perfuse_open() is a drop-in replacement for the open(2) system call where /dev/fuse is used. If path is different than /dev/fuse,
perfuse_open() handles control to the regular open(2).
RETURN VALUES
perfuse_mount() returns a file descriptor to the /dev/fuse socket on success, and causes exit on failure.
