>What version of FreeBSD are you using?


FreeBSD-STABLE (couple weeks old)

>What other OS's are on the machine?


None

>What disks are on the machine?


4 GB SCSI (Seagate w/ 2940U controller)

>Did you install the boot manager when you installed FreeBSD?


No.  However, I don't remember if I made it dangerously dedicated.

>What error messages do you see when trying to boot from the SCSI disk?


The basic "Insert disk and press any key to continue." no boot sector found
message.

Obviously I installed this with the controller in a non-FreeBSD conforming
state.  I'd like to avoid newfs'ing the system if possible.
