Yes.

It should just work to change 4.2BSD to RAID...  as long as you're 
never actually mounting /dev/wd0d or /dev/wd1d anywhere it'll be 
fine...

You should only need to tweak the disklabel.  If you boot single-user 
you should see root on /dev/raid0a .. at that point you can mount / 
read-write and fix /etc/fstab if necessary.  You shouldn't need to 
rebuild the RAID set...

Yes...  if it's not FS_RAID, then for i386/amd64/(and others) it 
won't even consider the partition for autoconfig...

Nope... just needs a disklabel change and it should work...
