"it didn't work" is a pretty useless error message.
What happened? Is your BIOS set to boot off that device? Can it boot from it?
Have you tried another OS on it?
If it looks like a hard disk I would think it *should* work as long as the
partition FreeBSD is installed onto is set to be bootable.
How did you partition and label the disk?
I've booted FreeBSD from a Jazz drive but it was a long time ago (and on
SCSI
ISTR)
