This is normal for fully dedicated disks :-).

It should be fixed in the current vfs_conf.c, except for the bogus device
name in the "changing" message.  This is not easy to fix, since it is
not known until later that slice == 5 (sd0s4, not sd0s5) passed by the
boot blocks really means slice == 0, (sd0, not sd0s-1).
