Dear Mrs/Sirs:

I tried several times to install BSD 2.0.5, but always had the
same problem: I am using the fourth "slice" of my SCSI hard 
disk, "sd0s4" for BSD, but when I boot it, comes the message
"changing root device to sd2a" and PANIC!

The SCSI id of the disk is 0 and the id of the CD-ROM is 2.
So, what does mean "sd2a" mean? Is it the second slice of
the disk or the CD-ROM?

Can you help me? Thank you,

	Pedro Salenbauch (pedrosal@nce.ufrj.br)
