hey!

i have two s-ata harddrives on this computer:

ad6, with FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE
and ad4, with Windows XP

when i boot either ad6 or ad4 alone, everything is cool.

when i plug both ad4 and ad6 into, i am brought to the freebsd
bootloader. however, half-way down the boot i get:

Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad6s1a
setrootbyname failed
ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6

when i switch ad6's cable over to ad4 and vice versa, my computer
doesn't boot past its bios at all. what's wrong here? i just need to
mount ad4 so i can back up some stuff, that's all. thank you so much!
