Subject: Refuses to mount / from sd0 despite new kernel

After a wonderfully quick and easy installation on my new SCSI disk (A
Seagate ST32550W (Barracuda?) on an Adaptec 2940UW) I have recompiled the
kernel (needed support for my IDE CD-ROM etc..) and it still refuses to
mount root from my SCSI disk.  I've stated 'config kernel root on sd0'
and the kernel tries to mount / from sd1.  Everything runs fine when I
boot hd(1,a)/kernel.  I've tries sd0s2 too (the FreeBSD slice) but no
improvement.  I no longer have any idea what is wrong.

Anyone?  Please?

It's FreeBSD 2.1 on a P75 with a Neptune chipset motherboard.  There is
also an EIDE disk on an IDE bus ... same as the CD-ROM, I think.

TIA,
Olof
