wd0a is
 a: 558763632 102398310     4.2BSD   2048 16384     0  #  (Cyl. 101585*- 
655914*)
and the error message is
findroot: unable to read block 102398311
and I do have a
sd0 at scsibus0 target 0 lun 0: <Meizu, MiniPlayer, 1.00> disk removable
sd0: 7820 MB, 7840 cyl, 16 head, 32 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 16015360 sectors
connected during boot, so you get full points here.
