problems mounting ipod nano 3g, how can i help?

[brad clawsie]

i hope this is the right list

i am on 6.2, last makeworld april 8

in the past i have never had problems mounting my first gen ipod
shuffle (usb flash) on freebsd using mount_msdosfs

last night i brought home a new ipod nano 3g (4gb flash usb) and found
that mount_msdosfs could not mount the drive (yes, it is a 'windows'
ipod). 

camcontrol recognizes the device as an ipod, and can perform functions
like eject on it correctly

mount gives me 'incorrect superblock' errors. ubuntu users are also
reporting badness with this device, but i believe they are capable of
mounting it. i can't even do that.

how can i help freebsd people address this issue? are there further
diagnostics i can run that would be beneficial? i am willing to do
anything non-destructive.

thanks
brad
