Hello.

My new current-kernel is drunk.
cvsup:ed and compiled on Tue Mar 16 1998
'dmesg' tells me the following:

npx0 on motherboard
npx0: INT 16 interface
changing root device to st1s1a
                        ^^^^^^

I did not know that you can use a tape-device as root
file-system. :)
And I did not know that you can have partition-slices
on a tape. :-)
