DragonFly 4.2.1 released

[Curtis Gagliardi]

I did have initrd.img.gz, and /boot is on UFS.  I never touched
initd.img as far as I know, I do have root and swap encrypted, but just
however the installer did it.  Would the upgrade process have messed
with that?

I tried rebuilding initrd.img.gz as per Matthias' suggestion just in
case, but no dice.  Nothing I'm finding poking around in man pages seems
to explain where ms0d0 comes from or why it would cease to exist.  Can
anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks, Curtis
