>Description:
	Someone has Changed Things so that RAIDframe's autoconfig now
occurs *before* most of the disk devices are present.  This means that
when raidattach() is called, and the autoconfig code is run, there
arn't any disks around, and the autoconfig bits won't find anything to
configure!!!! 
>How-To-Repeat:
	Boot a -current kernel with RAIDframe + Autoconfig, and wonder
why it can't find your root partition!!
>Fix:
	Dunno, but it needs to be fixed *SOON*.
