there's your problem -----------|

make this type `RAID' for raid components, not type `4.2BSD'.

if you check your dmesg before the root on raid0 stuff, you'll
probably find that there aren't any raid config messages. my box
(which has RAID types for the wdXe components), prints the following:

    biomask ef45 netmask ff65 ttymask ffe7
    Kernelized RAIDframe activated
    RAID autoconfigure
    Configuring raid0:
    RAIDFRAME: protectedSectors is 64
    RAIDFRAME: Configure (RAID Level 1): total number of sectors is 3931136
    (1919 MB)
    RAIDFRAME(RAID Level 1): Using 6 floating recon bufs with no head sep limit
    RAID autoconfigure
    [...]
    boot device: raid0
    root on raid0a dumps on raid0b
    root file system type: ffs


also, the bootblocks use the RAID type to do the magic with respect to
loading the kernel off a raidframe mirror, even though the /boot
bootblocks should come off a real wd0 partition.
