mount_msdos incorrect/wrong/not working?

Okay, heres a strange question. Why won't mount_msdos work off any USB drives?

the second drive is sysid 12, another 20G i have is sysid 11. Both work perfectly fine on windows and linux. Why not bsd? I don't know. Please enlighten me so I can tell my linux friend to stop larting me about how bsd is broken. The first example was created by newfs_msdos /dev/da0, formatted wrong but works in any system :). Its not my hardware, its BSD. I only use BSD, and I need this drive to work ASAP, all of them.

Flash Pen drive 128M - works but formatted WRONG dfbsd0# fdisk /dev/da0 ******* Working on device /dev/da0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=123 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl)

parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=123 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl)

Media sector size is 512
