I do'ed it just now.  When I booted it, after the rest of the configuration
messages, here's what I got:

boot device: wd0
root on wd0a dumps on wd0b
mountroot: trying msdos...
mountroot: trying cd9660...
mountroot: trying ffs...
no file system for wd0 (dev 0x0)
cannot mount root, error = 79
root device (default wd0a): _

kewl!
