If the loader is looking to wd0 for the kernel changing the fstab
will do nothing.   I have a custom kernel to set the sata as wd0

# IDE hard drives
wd1     at pciide? flags 0x0000
wd0     at pciide? flags 0x0000
wd*     at pciide? flags 0x0000

but you can do the same thing with a GENERIC kernel by playing with
config -e or boot -c

neko[GENERIC]$ config -e bsd
