This seems to be *the* trick. I added it and now I can see
umass/da messages in my logs.

Now my new problem is that, the key can't be mounted at all.

I added vfs.usermount sysctl:

,----[ sysctl -a | grep vfs.usermount ]
| vfs.usermount: 1
`----

Rights on my da* devices should be correct:

,----[ ls -al /dev/da* ]
| crw-rw-rw-  1 root  operator   10, 106 Mar 15 21:21 /dev/da0
| crw-rw-rw-  1 root  operator   10, 105 Mar 15 21:21 /dev/da0s1
`----

And here is how I am trying to mount the key (error enclosed):

,----[  mount -t msdos /dev/da0 /home/zedek/sys/mnt/usbkey/ ]
| msdosfs: /dev/da0: Invalid argument
`----

Nothing concerning USB can be tweaked here.
 
Any hint ?
