I'm not sure which list to send this to (-hackers, -stable, or -current), so
I'll ship it to -stable, and let it sort itself out.

Anyhow, I just ran 3.2-BETA (which SHOULD be stable), and hit a show stopper
right after boot.

I did a custom install (starting clean), went through the normal menus to set
it up for an FTP install. Distributions were binaries, and a few others, but
I don't think thats relevant to the problem.

When I commited, it died claiming it couldn't make the parition enteries in
/dev. Switching to the debug screen, the last few enteries were:

DEBUG: Scanning disk wd0 for root filesystem
DEBUG: Scanning disk wd0 for swap partitions
DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for devtype 0s1b
DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for devtype 0s1e
DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for devtype 0s1f

Anyhow, looks like a sysinstall issue. I don't have any CVS repositories that I
think I can look at for this, but it looks like its not processing the
drive/partition name correctly. 

If anyone has any suggestions or corrections, let me know. I'm looking forward
to trying 3.2.
