I haven't tracked it down, but I am also getting a vmware message that
claims that the root disk is mounted remotely, thoug this is not the
case.  I haven't noticed terribly performance problems, but I really
haven't done anything with vmware but bring it up and try to ping.  (I
can't get the #@$! networking right for vmware under FreeBSD--I'm really
seriously considering giving up & going back to Linux in fact.)

The message started showing up when I went from 4.2-RELEASE to 4.3-BETA.
