WARNING! WARNING!

If your kernel config file is from before February 1998, you must add
in the appropriate 'options xFS_ROOT' to be able to mount your root.
Ie, if you don't have 'options FFS_ROOT' in your kernel config, you
most likely want to add it.  You've been covered by compatibility code
up to now; that code is now gone.
