Would it be useful for the boot program to be able to use a
different partition id for 'the location of the kernel' and
'the location of the root filesystem'.

Currently when you type:
	boot hd0a:netbsd
the '0a' is used both.
(the problem is finding a suitable command syntax!)

This would be particularly useful if I also make the boot code
read commands from (say) /stand/bootcmd.
(before and/or after looking for interactive commands)
