Comment (by taos):

 After a little more experimenting, I've also found one fat32 usb stick
 that can't be initialized. It's a 2 GB Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire without a
 partition (/dev/disk/usb/x/0/raw, x = 0, 1, 2 etc). Except for this one,
 all my other usb storage devices formatted with FAT32 are identified as
 device /dev/disk/usb/x/0/raw with partition /dev/disk/usb/x/0/0, x = 0, 1,
 2 etc).

 Seems Alpha 3 doesn't like usb disks without Intel Partition Map - except
 if formatted as BFS, of course.
