Greg,

Your comment got me thinking and I realized that I upgraded
from 3.4 to 4.0 via 'make world'. This doesn't upgrade
/stand/sysinstall. I didn't do the extra step to install it
because the docs say its not necessary (I know - I should know
better.) Anyways, I suspected that maybe the 3.4 sysinstall
looked for slightly different /dev entries or whatever (i.e.
something different from 'disklabel'). I upgraded sysinstall
to 4.0 and it saw all my disks no problem.

Thanks!
