I am trying to install freeBSD. I was able to install it from my cd-rom.
When everything is finished, the system reboots. And I got a screen asking
me 

boot:

I don't really know what to put in there. 

I have a western digital 3.1 Gig Hardrive. The first two gig is used by
dos.

What I put something there, like
0:wd(3,a)kernel

the system boots, but about 1 minutes later, it says 
panics, can not mount root


What is wrong? I have reinstalled freeBSD a couple times, but I still get
the same error. 

help...

thanks.
