Please don't chuckle. I do not recall the term "compatibilty slice name".
I just supped my first sources last week. What does "compatibility slice
name" mean?

I did notice that the scsi drive was named differently than the ide back
when I upgraded to 2.2.6 a while ago. Nothing was broke so I didn't worry
about it. I am curious to know if there is something egregiously wrong
with my system that I never picked up on.

$ mount
/dev/wd0s2a on / (local)
/dev/sd0f on /usr (local)
/dev/sd0e on /var (local)
procfs on /proc (local)

(In case you were wondering, my bios won't boot scsi. This was a pain in
the butt to get working right.)
