 Sent to the wrong gnats address. (gnats-bugs for PR comments,
 netbsd-bugs to reach just the mailing list. gnats-admin is often more
 or less a black hole.)

 I do not have 5.0.1 on my server any more.
 I had it crash on me during cvs update -dP in /usr/pkgsrc as root.
 I am now experimenting with other os.
 This adding usb disk problem stemmed from teh guide writeup not workin for me.
 I do not have the error message.
 I used the add external disk that is outside the guide a bit lower of the page that lists the guide and pkgsrc guide.
 It worked.
 I mentioned that someone should perhaps put that external writeup in the guide.

 Subject: Reminder of 1 NetBSD Problem Report awaiting feedback

 This is an infrequent reminder that there is 1 Problem Report
 (PR) of yours in the NetBSD GNATS database in "feedback" state.

 Problem Reports in this state require additional information
 before they can be resolved. Most often, this is information
 required from the user who submitted the Problem Report in the
 first place; occasionally, information is required from some
 other source to resolve the reported problem.

 The GNATS problem report database operates primarily through
 Internet E-mail. To provide feedback to a problem report, or
 additional information, send E-mail to gnats-bugs@gnats.netbsd.org,
 with the Subject: field set to "Re: category/number", e.g.

     Subject: Re: port-eniac/1234

 and the GNATS PR database will append that message to the PR
 already in the database. You can also find these instructions at
