>Description:
While installing FreeBSD 8.1 from a 1gb SD card on an ASUS EEEBOX B202, the media was not found when selecting USB source in both installation and fixit.
Running the rescan is instant and could easily be added to the USB option in sysinstall to avoid this issue without impeeding performance.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install FreeBSD from SD card on ASUS EEEBOX B202.
>Fix:
Run rescan in options.
