Is there any way to guess resulting 'Y' numbers _before_ booting new 
kernel? I have remote machine with console access almost impossible (very 
hard for me).

It seems something like
vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:/dev/ada0s1a ufs:/dev/ada1s1a ..."
(up to max channels) helps to find root, but what about other mounted 
disks?
