I just did a testinstall and indeed sr0 and 1 are missing, but only during
the initial install, after you reboot from harddisk all devices are there.
I think I know how to fix it for m68k, but it looks more like a MAKEDEV bug.
All other arches have this in generic-<arch>:
generic-i386)

$0 $opts scd0 scd1
m68k does not, why?
This could be fixed in rootdisk.sh, but I think MAKEDEV should be fixed
instead. In any case, bf 3.0.24 would be nice for m68k, after that bug is
fixed. Or is 3.0.24 already released? Will it ever be released?
