I've not tried unixfs with a connect32 and so don't know what
partitioning scheme it uses. have you written a disklabel?

Check the swi base. The format of the device identifier give to
unixfs_mount is

(swibase & ~0x3f) | (drive << 3) | partition

You example would use swibase

403c0 as the swibase, 4 as the drive and access partition d
