the drive might be sensitive to the timing?

can you pull and replug the drive and see if ther= e are any
error messages on the console?

as a work arround for now, you can try doing this= manually:

diskparts /dev/sdU6.0
dossrv

mount -c /srv/dos /n/usb /dev/sdU6.0/dos
cd /n/usb

Worked.= =A0Thanks!

the dos filesystem does not do write= buffering so there is
no need to flush. (see dossrv(= 4))

mounts are local to the namespace. you can remove= something
from the namespace with the unmount command (see bind(1))
or you just close the whole namespace (close the rio window).

for documentation on formating and partitioning d= isks see prep(8).
