FreeBSD mda08.jrc.it 2.2.6-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE #0: Wed Aug  5 17:19:12 CEST 1998     root@mda08.jrc.it:/usr/src/sys/compile/PEN  i386

>Description:
Message 'changing root device to st1s1a' should be
'changing root device sd1s1a'.

The code in 2.2.5 is different, but the problem has been reported before.
Has the code in 2.2.6 been taken from an earlier release maybe? Just a thought.
>How-To-Repeat:
reboot
