sd0-n vs wd0-n

Heylas again,

So, I have a working machine again, after copying a kernel over from a
working machine, verifying it, and generating a new hash (I have a
whole long saga of investigation, but I'll spare you).

Can anyone suggest why a machine, with no activity but ssh logins and
then a syspatch of patches 2-3 on 6.8 would spontaneously start
considering the SATA disks in the machine (which were previously loaded
as sd0-sd2) as IDE (wd0-wd2)? This seems to have happened (it's the
lasting "scar" from my machine borkage, I guess). Seems a bit weird,
though.

Amy!
