Thanks for the replies so far.
I don't believe it's booting from the USB drive, because it is loading FreeBSD (where as the USB drive has no OS on it at all) and just stopping part of the way to ask where to mount root from. Plus, this is a little bit older of a motherboard, I don't know if the BIOS will even boot from a USB device (I can check, of course).
I don't have SCSI devices, but I do have a HighPoint 454 RAID5 controller, and that's what FreeBSD loads from. I don't know exactly how it treats the logical drive created by the RAID set - maybe the same as a SCSI device? Would the contents of fstab or another file help me figure that out?
It wouldn't bother me either, but if I reboot the box remotely (or it reboots for any weird reason - not that FreeBSD has done that to me so far!) I lose remote access because it never finishes loading the OS.
Any additional ideas?
