Dear Joseph,
as I have recently written, I met an analogous problem while upgrading
to CURRENT: the "wdNsMa syndrome" appeared when I rebooted in s.u.m.
with the shining gleaming roaring freshly-made 4.0-CURRENT kernel in
order to (somehow) make installworld. Well, I did NOT care about it
and I went ahead ruthlessly ...
By the way, I made another kernel at the end of the process ("by the
book"). I suppose (?) this cleared the problem. In fact, I was able to
boot with no weird messages: all my filesystems were correctly
identified as adNsM (e.g. ad1s2a, ad1s2e ...)
HTH,
Salvo
