So, this weekend I installed net on two LX machines and an ss5. All went
swimmingly (I always wanted to use that phrase) until the last
install. This LX- not that this is the same exact floppy set, the same
install procedures, the same everything except ip addy and hostname, for
*three* machines- this last LX doesn't boot properly

all 3 machines are headless, all 3 were installed form the same
source/same floippies/ same dist directories.

and on the final machine I get 


scsibus0: waiting 2 seconds for devices to settle...
sd0 at scsibus0 target 0 lun 0: <SEAGATE, ST32550N SUN2.1G, 0414> SCSI2
0/direct fixed
sd0: 2048 MB, 3511 cyl, 11 head, 108 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 4194995 sectors
sd0: sync (100.0ns offset 15), 8-bit (10.000MB/s) transfers, tagged queueing
sd1 at scsibus0 target 5 lun 0: <TEAC, FC-5     HGF  00, RV C> SCSI1
0/direct removable
sd1: 1440 KB, 80 cyl, 2 head, 18 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 2880 sectors
sd1: async, 8-bit transfers
scsibus1: waiting 2 seconds for devices to settle...
Kernelized RAIDframe activated
sd1: no disk label
root on sd0d dumps on sd0b
no file system for sd0 (dev 0x703)
cannot mount root, error = 79
root device (default sd0d): 


now, it should be booting with a root device of sd0a - the same
partitioning scheme was used for the three machines (all have 2gig
cudas, it's literally identical partitioning).

so why did this one not install properly?

(and how do I fix this?)
