Well put.
Compiling and building the disk image are getting done from a 4.0-STABLE
box. The disk image is then written in whole over the DOC, replacing
whatever was there.

fdisk:
******* Working on device /dev/fla0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=995 heads=16 sectors/track=1 (16 blks/cyl)
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=995 heads=16 sectors/track=1 (16 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:

error reported by kernel:
no devsw (majdev=30, bootdev=0xa020001e)
and then I get kicked into manual root fs selection.
If there is anything else I can provide that would be helpful to you,
don't hesitate to ask.
