Oops.  I found this reason.
I had failed in writing by dd(1).  As for it, the aryne was not done by
the size of the block.

(Maybe my memory)
  $ dd if=SYS_INST of=/dev/rsd0d
  Invalid argument
  153+1 records in
  153+0 records out                                             <- +0?  X-)
  78624 bytes transferred in 0.002 secs (39312000 bytes/sec)


I succeed to boot by kernel in miniroot.fs.
# But I encountered other problem.  X-<
