I would like to do a make world with /usr/obj and /usr/src
on memory disks (this system has 2GB RAM, so I figure 512MB
for each ought to be enough).  This is a 4.6-stable system.

I created some md devices in /dev, but can't make
mount_mfs work with something like
mount_mfs -s 1048576 /dev/md0 /usr/src
or mount_mfs -s 1048576 /dev/md0s1 /usr/src

Maybe I'm missing a step?  These devices have not been
disklabeled.
