You'll have to make device nodes. Boot your old kernel (by typinh
1:wd(2,a)/kernel.old), and go to the /dev directory. There, make sure
that the wds1? devices exist. If they don't use MAKEDEV to make them.

*Everything* should be wd1s1?. You simply don't have the device nodes
for them. This is a very *small* problem that is solved, as I just
described, by cerating the device nodes with MAKEDEV. I think "./MAKEDEV
wd1" will be enough, but I'm not at my FreeBSD box now, so I can't be
sure. At worst, you'll have to specify to it the exact name of the
device nodes you want it to generate.
