I got inspired by http://www.rietman.biz/~wijnand/linux/mac/index.html?main

And I produced the tbxi attached. Modify it to fit your configuration,
then put it on /, set the boot-device to hd:,\boot.tbxi and re-enable
auto-boot? variable.

Then hold the spacebar at boot if you want to run FreeBSD.

Bye,
Dario
