These should be fine.
But then on real hardware everything depends on the precise hardware that
you have, so we'd need to see your lspci output to know if rumpusbdisk
supports it.
> * Also: settrans -a /hurd/rumpusbdisk /dev/sd0 , but then realized it's probably setup diring boot
Yes, but that would help seeing debugging messages from rumpusbdisk,
whether it does see an sd0/ud0.
