What kind of file system is used on these usb devices?
FAT? Or NTFS?

What is reported by "pfexec fdisk -R -W - /dev/rdsk/c?t0d0p0" ?

(where /dev/rdsk/c?t0d0p0 is the logical node name
from rmformat -l )


And "pfexec fstyp -v /dev/dsk/c?t0d0p1"
"pfexec fstyp -v /dev/dsk/c?t0d0p2"
"pfexec fstyp -v /dev/dsk/c?t0d0p3"
"pfexec fstyp -v /dev/dsk/c?t0d0p4" ?

(Note: /dev/dsk/... , instead of dev/rdsk/... )

What is the exact command you tried 
when trying to mount the device?
Seems as if you tried to mount using
the char device /dev/rdsk/... instead of
the block device /dev/dsk/....
