            Bug ID: 277264
           Summary: mount(8)ing incorrect device gives confusing ENOENT
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern

# ls -l /dev/md0s2
crw-r-----  1 root operator 0x211 Feb 23 16:33 /dev/md0s2
# mount -t ufs -rw /dev/md0s2 /mnt
mount: /dev/md0s2: No such file or directory

this was my error, because the correct device is /dev/md0s2a, not /dev/md0s2. 
however, ENOENT seems like the wrong error here, because the device listed in
the error clearly does exist, it just doesn't contain a UFS filesystem.  

using 15.0-CURRENT 58df49801d9d58e61cc2adc8fd1e6848b64d2453 on amd64.
