I found a workaround in PR misc/68528 (beware of cutandpaste):

--- src/release/scripts/doFS.sh.orig        Thu Jul  1 03:47:59 2004

         MDDEVICE=`mdconfig -a -t vnode -f ${FSIMG}`
+       sleep 1
         if [ ! -c /dev/${MDDEVICE} ] ; then
                 echo "No /dev/$MDDEVICE" 1>&2
                 exit 1

works for me.
