Are you sure your USB disk shows up as sd? Looking at the config
file, I would have thought it would match wd.
If it is wd, then the config should have something along these lines:
wd0 at umass0
umass0 at uhub0 port 0 configuration 0 interface 0
uhub0 at usb0
usb0 at uhci0
uhci0 at pci1 dev 1 function 0
pci1 at ppb0 bus 0
ppb0 at pci0 dev 0 function 0
pci0 at mainbus 0 bus 0
Obviously I've thrown in a bunch of "0" here, where there probably
should be something else, as well as a "1", since you have two pci
buses involved already at this point.
That's the "more or less" part. Now, if you don't understand the
concept based on this, then I don't think putting correct numbers in
here is going to help much more either. The basic idea though, is
that this will always cause the same disk to be wd0, and no other
disk will ever become that. No matter what hardware you add, or
where.
What you really don't seem to understand is that this answers only
half of the contract. Put the drive in another USB port and it
doesn't show up as wd0.
The idea was that only that disk would show up as wd0, and would
always show up as wd0. (Incidentally, wd@umass is very rare. I think
it was only some old Archos.)
