Would it be reasonable to assume that our current boot code will never have a chance of dealing with the root partition via a "slice?" It's kind of a pity since I've gotten a lot of tech support emails from people who were very confused that / showed up on `sd0a' while everything else was on a slice. It makes a somewhat confusing model (to the uninitiated) even more confusing since just when they think they're understanding it (and, in fact, ARE) that comes along to trip them up. Sigh. Jordan
