I've got a bootable filesystem that although it's installed in the first
slice on a disk the kernel/bootloader tries to mount /dev/ad0s2a as the
root filesystem.  I'm scratching my head as to why.  Any ideas?
It should be mounting /dev/ad0s1a automatically.

The following are set by /boot/loader:
	rootdev=disk1s1a
	currdev=disk1s1a:

Joe.

p.s.  This image is being booted via /dev/md0 in vmware.  What I'm
trying to work out is whether it's a bug in either of these parts.
