Is this so that it could mount root?  In 3.x the only way to do this
is to have a special disk label type.  I've hacked things to get fla
bootable on -stable using this method.  The sysinstall program hasn't
been updated, however.

phk's fla driver mount / correctly when it is the boot device.
However, the boot loader does have some interesting limitations in
this area last time I checked.  Likely it was due to using the -stable
version for most of my testing.
