Mount error with USB disk

[kimba]

Hi!
I just installled pc-bsd but i found i have a problem using usbdisk.
Its a 250 GB, fat32, usb2 disk.

When i try to mount i get this error of Konqueror or kio_media_mounthelp:

Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

It seems it actually mount it but i cant see it. But then if i "cuddle" it a little like open and close the monted window more times, ora ask for preference it magically appear.
Konqueror problem?


But if i try to mount it from command line:

pcbsd-101# mount /dev/da1s1 /home/kimba/usbdisk
mount: /dev/da1s1: No such file or directory

or

pcbsd-101# mount -t vfat /dev/da1s1 /home/kimba/usbdisk
mount: exec mount_vfat not found in /sbin:/usr/sbin: No such file or directory

What do u think?

Thanks for help! :)

Have tried to replace vfat with msdosfs at the mount command?

I've also been unable to get my large FAT32 drive to mount (300GB, in this case). I'm of the conclusion that the current release doesn't have the MSDOSFS_LARGE module installed in the kernel (despite claims in the forums that it was made default in 1.3), so the system can't mount the large drives.

Can anyone confirm this? If so, is there an easier way to enable it then rebuilding the world? I'd like to make my PC-BSD box my main file server, but I can't do that if I can't mount my drives.

Gotta love WebSVN hehehe.

Ok, so that's not it after all. I'm really lost and confused then.

I think you missed the part that BSD IS NOT LINUX.

mount_msdosfs /dev/da1s1 /home/kimba/usbdisk
