Until now i used only xterm and i haven't learnt another way for diagnostics.((If by console you mean xterm then what's 'X window'?)Moving from Ubuntu to OBSD is like suddenly diving to deep waters.Truth is i like it because it offers a lot of knowledge that it's -if not impossible- really difficult to obtain when using other OSes.I might learn things the 'hard' way but once learnt something,it's not going to be forgotten."And knowledge is power" especially in OBSD.

That happens just because that's what i did; i was trying attaching/detaching to see if it would work but it failed.

umass0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0 "JMicron USB to ATA/ATAPI bridge" rev 2.00/1.00 addr 2
umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only
scsibus1 at umass0: 2 targets, initiator 0

sd0: 1907729MB, 4096 bytes/sec, 488378646 sec total
That's the only thing i see when attaching the hard disk.And i see only a c partition on disklabel.
