I findiing the handbook a little confusing on this topic, and was wondering if anyone would be willing outline a procedure for this. -G ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Cop[ying files from WIndows - FreeBSD using Cruizer
You could transfer files in multiple ways other than copying files to a usb stick and mounting it in freebsd. To mount a fat32 volume in freebsd use 'mount -t msdos /path/to/device /mountpoint' and simply copy the files from the mountpoint. Alternatives are to use network file sharing, ssh file transfer, etc. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks David, In my case I was getting a 'deprication' warning so I changed the command to: mount -t msdosfs /dev/da1s1 /usbstick (I already have a scsi device (SAS) connected).
