Ok, real quick update since I'm out of time for right now.

4.0_STABLE kernel loads but after sysinst is read in from md2a, I get:
no file system for md2 (dev 0x120)
Cannot mount root, error = 79

Then back to the root device prompt.  Maybe I did something wrong, but I 
can't think of what that would be.  If you can't immediately think of a 
potential cause, I'll try again after I'm done with 5.

5.0_BETA boots and does load sysinst properly.  The install is in progress. 
More results on this later.
