hi.
i just installed netbsd 1.5, and compiled my own kernel (1.5.1).
the config file reads:

--snip--
config	netbsd	root on wd1a type ffs
--snip--

in my opinion that should allow the kernel to mount the rootfs
correctly, but all i get is:
panic:	cnopen:	cn_tab -> cn_dev == NODEV
boot device unknown.

when i boot the generic kernel it does ok, and mount shows that
wd1a is mounted as root.

thank you for your help
