I updated the pmon paths. It autoboots. It autoboots the kernel. But then it
prompts me for two devices (swap and I guess root fs).
How do I remove those prompts?

same:
$ dmesg | grep ral
ral0 at pci0 dev 13 function 0 "Ralink RT2561S" rev 0x00: irq 6, address
00:0e:8e:1e:ef:d0
ral0: MAC/BBP RT2561C, RF RT2527

Thanks,
