I've been trying to follow, via cvsup, the freebsd-stable branch. I just
rebuilt the kernel on my machine and I've run into a problem that I'm not
sure what to do about.

I'm using the same config file that I used with the 2.2.5-release source
and that kernel works just fine. When I build the kernel and boot I get
the following:

the kernel is labeled: 2.2.6-beta #0

Once all of the devices have been found and checked this new kernel
attempts to change the device that root is on:

changing root device to: wd0s2a

it then mounts swap and then begins the fsck. at this point it give the
following error

/dev/wd0a on /: specified device does not match mounted device.

Now, I understand that it is trying to mount a different device then what
I have specified in the config file:

config          kernel  root on wd0

What I am not at all sure about is why this is. Have the config options
changed with the the stable branch? Am I missing something from the config
file for the kernel? My disks look like this:

Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0a      180495    43910   122146    26%    /
/dev/wd1s1e   1205727   944425   164844    85%    /usr
/dev/wd0s1e    149279     4360   132977     3%    /var
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc

the actual slices on my first disk are
wd0s1a		/
wd0s1b		swap
wd0s1e		/var

?
