I tried with the 6.2-RELEASE boot.flp image since I don't have large
file system images lying around.  I don't see how the size of the file
is relevant since only one md device node will be created.

Not specific to FreeBSD.  It's basically the process that watches for
HAL changes, and executes configurable actions on those changes.  If it
is the one responsible for kicking off the mount, it will narrow down
where to troubleshoot.
