Greetings again..

I just got FreeBSD 4.4 and i installed it on my box.The instalation went fine and recompiling kernel too.But when i restarted my computer it showed an error at boot:
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s2a
no such device 'ad'
setrootbyname failed
ffs_mountroot:can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6
...

What is wrong?I used the same kernel config in 4.3 release and it didn't show this.Should i add device ad0 in kernel conf or smth?
Please help. Thanks in advance.

Martin
