Configure, build, and install a kernel with "root on sd0a dumps on
sd0b" and then it won't ask you.

You can also modify /sys/arch/vax/boot/boot.c to make it boot
automatically without needing to use "b/1".  Look for two places where
the string "/netbsd" occurs, and change them both to read
"rom()netbsd", then recompile and reinstall in /boot.
