I can boot the old kernel. A MAKEDEV using the new MAKEDEV has now wiped
all block devs, so swapon, etc. ,fail.. However, this is the conundrum-
it's not safe to do a 'make installworld' on a two week old kernel, but
the new kernel with old mount, fsck, etc., obviously cannot cope with the
new 'raw-only' devices.

An experience like this will move users to OpenBSD. This kind of jump up
is completely unacceptable.


> bdevs?  If so, how about the fixit floppy/CD-ROM?

This is alpha, and no floppy.
