I meant ld0, as you guessed, of course.

mknod rld0b c 69 1   (as you pointed out)

OK. That solves the problem of the major number for mknod
I ran all the mknod from a to h:
# mknod ld0a  b 19 0
...
# mknod ld0h  b 19 7
# mknod rld0a c 69 0
# mknod rld0h c 69 7
# chgrp operator ld0* rld0*
# chmod 640 ld0* rld0*

But when I run disklabel it still complains:
# disklabel -i -I ld0
disklabel: /dev/rld0c: Device not configured

Why's that?

My dmesg says:
# dmegs
[...]
ld0 at mlx0 unit 0: RAID5, online
ld0: 2500 MB, 1269 cyl, 64 head, 63 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 5120000 sectors
[...]

I hopy you'll not give up on me... Thanks a lot so far,

Daniel
