I have asked this in freebsd-usb@, but take an answer, that's not USB-related 
trouble.

I have 28-in-1 Acorp internal cardreader, which connects to USB port. When I 
insert card in reader and boot, all OK. When I boot, and later insert card - 
does nothing - /dev/da0s1 not appeared, in spite of presence /dev/da0.

I have search this advice - open /dev/da0 for writing and immediately close 
it. I.e.

cat /dev/null > /dev/da0

or

dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/da0 count=0

Well, after these "magic actions" /dev/da0s1 appears. But I think, that 
opening raw device for writing isn't good idea. How to mount flash, inserted 
in cardreader another way, without opening raw device for writing or is there 
any program, which does it by itself?
