USB Flash Drive.

I'm using Free BSD 4.9 on a P III Compq.
I have a "W at LK Key" USB 64MB Flash drive.
The flash drive is plugged in a USB port when I boot and dmesg shows
some reasonably encouraging
indications that it recognizes the device. It seems to be associating it
with umass0.....
Part of the dmseg reads....
uhci0: <Intel 82801BA/BAM (ICH2) USB controller USB-B> port
0x2440-0x245f irq 5 at device 31.4 on pci0
usb0: <Intel 82801BA/BAM (ICH2) USB controller USB-B> on uhci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0
uhub0: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered
umass0: Luwen EasyDisc, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2
My question - To what "device" do I mount? I can't find umass0 isn't
in my /dev and all the other references that are there don't work -
mount -t msdos /dev/????? /walkkey. Further - how does BSD figure out
when this type of hot-pluggable device is being used? I've a CD burner
and camera that I will eventually want to use. I couldn't find a topic
in the handbook that addressed USB mass storage.....did I miss something?
Thanks
