iPod USB problems

[Ulf Magnusson]

I'm trying to get FreeBSD to "see" my iPod filesystem. I stumbled across
this howto, http://www.osxhax.com/archives/000009.html, that outlines
the procedure when using firewire. 

Unfortunately, my board doesn't support fireware, and so I have to use
USB. The iPod is detected at boot, as can be seen in the log:

The marked section takes several minutes to complete.

I thought I'd try mounting da0 as is done in the tutorial, the fstab
entry being,

/dev/da0		/ipod		msdos	rw,noauto	0	0

, but it fails with the error message "msdosfs: /dev/da0: Invalid
argument." I get no other da0* /dev entries. The boot message for the
USB port to which I attached the iPod (which is a USB 2.0 port) might 
also be helpful, so I'll include it:

usb1: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support
usb1: SMM does not respond, resetting
usb1: <OHCI (generic) USB controller> on ohci1
usb1: USB revision 1.0

does the last line mean FreeBSD isn't correctly detecting USB 2.0 on the
port?

I'm running FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE, using a Epox nForce2 motherboard.

Help appreciated as always.
