Good question.  While trying to figure out a problem with upgraded VMs to Cauldron, installing kernels in the chroot system using the Rescue 
feature of the installer caused device.map to have all hd entries wiped out and all that was left was fd0.  I had to restore device.map from 
the device.map.old copy it makes.
