Here i cannot boot from my old disk after update my i386 7-STABLE 
to -current, my ad0s1a slice isn't found.

When the kernel is compiled with GEOM_PART_MBR and GEOM_PART_BSD, the new 
geom_part stuff is failing to read the slices and bsdlabel together.

If i only load the GEOM_PART_MBR i see the slices detected (ad0s1 ad0s2), 
but when i load the GEOM_PART_BSD together it will show only the bsd labels, 
as if it is created directly on raw device (ad0a ad0b ad0d ad0e ...).

The only way i've found to boot my system again is to compile a new kernel 
with GEOM_BSD and GEOM_MBR, instead of GEOM_PART_*.
