Some time ago I was told to just open the device even if there is no

E.g. mount_msdosfs /dev/da2s1 /mnt

Yes, this works (Terry also pointed this out.) I wish this could be wired to the media change signal somehow.

This is a pre GEOM scenario, so it might have been fixed.
Also the panic is a pre GEOM panic - at least for me.
I wouldn't give it much time to debug before rechecking with a
recent kernel.

I can't update my machine right now, but if Lars could update his
system and recheck the situation...

Just checkeded, and it does NOT crash anymore on bootup when no media is inserted (with yesterday's -current.)
