Gee, I guess it's feel-like-a-fool week for me :-)

 * Think of it this way - if you built a SunOS kernel and specified something like
 * 
 * 	vmunix		root on sd0a swap on type spec sd0b
 * 
 * and you booted it on a system with no sd0, but an sd3 instead (i.e., yours)
 * you wouldn't very well expect it to come up, would you?

<red in face>  Uhhhh, no.  I was about to say that "well, whouldn't
'boot -a' work?" but then, how can you pass the -a flag to a kernel that
can't find its own root device?

Does "swap generic" work yet, or is this avoided because it makes the
resulting binary too huge to fit comfortably onto root? (!)

 * Theo's TDR2 kernel has support for sd0 on SCSI target 3 and sd1 on target 1.

Got it from here, thanks for your help!
