Is there any way to guess resulting 'Y' numbers _before_ booting new
kernel? I have remote machine with console access almost impossible (very
hard for me).

In most cases order of adaX devices should match order of ad devices, so first adX will become ada0, second - ada1, etc. The only exception there should be devices on ATA channels in legacy/ISA emulation mode: ata0 (ad0/ad1) and ata1 (ad2/ad3). Old ATA always allocated these devices first, but new ATA will allocate them as any other in order of their channels registration. That order you can see in dmesg.
