repeated a few time on following process and ithe crash happened at different 
USB access phase at each time.

System crashed

The crash log is available at 
http:/www.daemonfun.com/archives/pub/USB/crash1-reset.bz2
(All logs are based on hw.usb.umass.debug=-1)

After system reboot, and repeated above processes, the da0s3e was mounted on 
/dist, but da0s3d cannot.
It tunred out that newfs fail inside labeling process in sysinstall. Manually 
did newfs on da0s3d, and
it cannot be mounted on /mnt, but access to it caused crash.
The crash log is available at http:/www.daemonfun.com/archives/pub/USB/newfs

Tried entire process again, this time, both partitons are formatted (newfs) 
inside labaling process (sysinstall)
but crahsed system during dump/restore on da0s3e (/dist).
The crash log is available at 
http:/www.daemonfun.com/archives/pub/USB/usb-log.crash2.bz2, which is huge one.
It contains two parts, one dump/restore IDE to da0s3d (passed), and the rest is 
dump/restore to da0s3e (crashed).

I am going to reinstall the system with the new ISO from Nov 21 8.0-RELEASE to 
see if anything will improve.

Hi,

Error 5 means IO error, so probably the transport layer, USB or lower, is to 
blame.

Some things to check:

1) Make sure the connection for your memory stick is Ok.
2) Make sure there is enough power for your memory stick.

Regarding memory sticks:

Other operating systems do a port bus reset when the device has a problem. On 
FreeBSD we just try a software reset via the control endpoint. I guess that it 
is a device problem you are seeing. The USB stack in FreeBSD is faster than 
the old one, and maybe the faster queueing of mass storage requests trigger 
some hidden bugs in your device.

When the problem happens try:

sysctl hw.usb.umass.debug=-1

--HPS
