After a power failure (long story, don't ask :), I ended up having to
rebuild my -current box this evening - last cvsup was at 0300 CST 03/09

On bootup, I see:

	...
	changing root device to wd0s2a
	...

Which is kinda odd, since I don't actually have a slice 2 :)

	gorgon # fdisk wd0
	...
	The data for partition 1 is:
	sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
	...
	The data for partition 2 is:
	<UNUSED>
	The data for partition 3 is:
	<UNUSED>
	The data for partition 4 is:
	<UNUSED>

/etc/fstab references (correctly) wd0s1[ab] for mondo-large partition
and swap respectively, and the system appears to be working fine..

	gorgon # df
	Filesystem   1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
	/dev/wd0s1a    6376860   331579  5535133     6%    /
	procfs               4        4        0   100%    /proc
	...

So why is there this boot message reference to slice 2?

Confused.
