Hi, I would like to report a 4.1.1 installation problem.

My i386 has a two-slice IDE (ad0s1, ad0s2) and a single slice SCSI (da0).

I specified / and /usr as ad0s2a and ad0s2e in disklabel. Both ad0s1
and da0 are marked as DOS and inactive. At commit, the installation 
says "can't find / and swap."

Things started working after I unplugged the SCSI drive.

How-To-Repeat: Have ad0s1, ad0s2, and da0 in an i386 PC.

Install 4.1.1 with kern.flp and msfroot.flp

Does this problem still occur with more recent releases?
