Subject:   Switching BSD disk to slave

I just purchased a new disk in order to dual boot windows 98 and FreeBSD
on my machine.  Since windows refuses to install and boot on anything but
the primary drive (wd0s1) I had to move my old disk, the bsd disk to
slave wd1s1.  Before shutting down I changed the devices in fstab to match
the new disk and made the devices.  However when I tried to boot back into
bsd it refused to find my / partition, still trying to mount /dev/wd0s1a.  

Is there something else that I have to change in order to switch the /
partition's device?
