I believe that NetBSD will always ignore the provided device numbers and
present the virtual disks as instances of xbd (Xen Block Device), which
are disklabeled like any other kind of disk.  This is done, for reasons
I don't yet understand, in the reverse of the order in which the disks
are listed in the config.

So the root device, given that config, would be /dev/xbd1d.

(A useful command here, BTW, is "sysctl hw.disknames".)
