FYI:

The following snapshots fail to find it:

3.1-19990421-STABLE
	no disks found, no PCI probes done

4.0-19990418-CURRENT
	gets to visual configuration but no PCI probing.

4.0-19990420-CURRENT
	gets to visual configuration but no PCI probing.

4.0-19990421-CURRENT
	after visual configuration, it stops at "rootfs is 2880 bytes
	compiled in MFS".  No PCI probes at all.  Doesn't get to visual
	configuration

This has been forwarded to -current.
