error mounting USB disk: Invalid argument

[Colin_Brace]

Hi again,

It seems like a JMicron issue. I can mount a different USB drive, formatted
for Linux, without problem:

dmesg:

[...]
umass0: <Myson Century, Inc. USB Mass Storage Device, class 0/0, rev
2.00/b0.08, addr 2> on uhub1
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <  > Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device 
da0: 1.000MB/s transfers
da0: 38154MB (78140160 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 4864C)
GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider da0s1 is ext2fs//.

[root at venus ~]# mount -t ext2fs /dev/da0s1 /media/disk6/ 

ls /media/disk6
[...]

Works fine.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it isn't really worth my trouble at this
point; I'll find a different solution. Somewhere there must be a list of
which SATA to USB chipsets are supported by FreeBSD.
