That parmline will give 2061 the "dasda" block device, 2500 will be "dasdb",
2501 "dasdc" ... 2505 will be "dasdg".
If your rootfs is on 2061, and you specified "root=/dev/dasda1", you should
have 2061 as first entry in your parmline. As for "minidisk" partitioned
volumes, use the virtual device number instead of the physical one.
