It's unhelpful to scatter information amongst about 5 different mails,
one of which is to an address that is not visible to normal bugs@ readers
(and is a pain to locate for developers). Since you mention you have
tweaked -r for bioctl softraid, I bet there are other things you tweaked
too.

Please write everything up that you can about your configuration into a
single self-contained mail.

Note that USB support is not a strong point of OpenBSD.
