Since I have some other mass storage device and it seems
the latest HPS stack works fine with the normal ones (Kingston
Data Traveler 256MB, IMation 1GB Flash Drive and Nokia
6280 with 1GB MicroSD card in storage mode) but not the
strange ones like a 23040 Bytes PIC18F2550 USB mass
storage device.

1) 23040B PIC18F2550 device (using internal Flash as the
storage)

And Nokia 6280 in default mode will crash FreeBSD just
as it crashes Linux last time. The computer immediately
freezes and I have to hit the reset button. It did not
work last time under my XP SP2 but later Nokia host
software seems to solve the issue. It did not
work under Linux either with the USB storage mode.

Later it seems to me that 2GB MicroSD card is the
problem and I have replaced it with a 1GB card and
it works better.

With default mode, last time Linux will crash
as well but it seems the problem has been solved.

Strangely I could not find any crash log this time. It
happened to me yesterday with the Kingston Data
Traveler 256MB but today it works fine with revision
711 HPS stack.
