	Really ? Is this Xen stuff then different from FreeBSD usually
	works ? I thought that since /etc/fstab is on root file system
	the kernel (or nothing else) has no access to it before root
	is actually mounted (I thought that the vfs.root.mountfrom parameter
	is just for that).

	But ok, I'll update the fstab to say "/dev/xbd769a /".
