Guess I assumed the defaults would be correct.  The boot files in /boot
on the system appeared to be what I wanted:

total 294
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel     512 Apr  4 09:59 boot0
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel     512 Apr  4 09:59 boot1
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel    7680 Apr  4 09:59 boot2
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  131072 Apr  4 09:59 loader
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   11462 Mar 27 21:12 loader.help
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  131072 Mar 27 21:12 loader.old

Bob Willcox             The man who follows the crowd will usually get no
bob@luke.pmr.com        further than the crowd.  The man who walks alone is
Austin, TX              likely to find himself in places no one has ever
                        been.            -- Alan Ashley-Pitt
