kldload atapicam is happy with it:

$> camcontrol devlist
<SONY DVD RW DRU-820A 1.0b>        at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (cd0,pass0)
<IOMEGA ZIP 250 41.S>              at scbus0 target 1 lun 0 (da0,pass1)


Anyway I removed it and restart booting on the memstick but it fails 
the same way as before.

Each time it fails booting on current, if I reset to reboot 8-stable it 
fails finding the disks. if I turn off and on again I am able to boot 
the 8-stable again... really strange.
