Alter your /etc/fstab so that wd0 and wd1 are fsck'ed *sequentially*,
instead of in parallel. Watch source-changes for fixes to the wd.c
driver. :) Another thing to try is to alter your kernel's
configuration so that it swaps on both drives:
config netbsd root on wd0 swaps on wd0 and wd1
I don't know if any of those work, I only have one drive. They're
just things that I've seen suggested.
