Hey, I'm sorry to offend -really- but the handbook
(www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-MAIL) states
that -current is a technical mailing list for which
strictly technical content is expected. Under -questions, it says not to
post "how-to" questions to the technical lists.
I felt my question was fairly straightforward and non-technical, I
mainly wanted to know "how-to" change over the device names from 3.2 to
4.0.
At your suggestion, however, I will redirect my question to -current.
