you first need to have FreeBSD partitions support to be able to work with
them. Then, you need UFS filesystem support. Luckily, UFS write support is
dangerous for some versions of UFS, but it's safe for FreeBSD's UFS
(however I'm not sure if that woeks with softupdates...)

does the kernel report anything about the connected drive and partitions on
it?
