Hi;

Some people didn't understand the screenshot so I'll explain better:

See the VMware window? FreeBSD is booting under a graphical mode, with a
background bitmap. Graphical boot is good as it's expected that future displays
might not support characters and because it looks great :).

And BTW, KGI means Kernel Graphics Interface.

cheers,

    Pedro.
