The first two is OK, the third one is bad.

 If you get the message:
panic: Cannot mount root

At the end of the probe sequence you should either:
1. Have the line:
config kernel root on wd2

in your kernel config,
OR:

2. Rename the second disk to wd1 in the kernel config (comment out the 
original wd1 line and change the wd2 line to read wd1, leaving all other 
parameters unchanged).

HTMLized mail sent to Internet mailing lists is genreally considered bad
form.
