Using FreeBSD 3.4.0
I have initially set up FreeBSD as my boot disk but now I have set DOS
as my boot disk - and FreeBSD as my second.
I installed bootinst on both drives.

When booting from FreeBSD (throught boot manager) on the 2nd drive -
I get config errors because boot wants to see wd0 not wd1.
So I reset up my fstab file,
changing the / mount from wd0s1a to wd1a (there is no wd1s1a in /dev).

I did similar to the /usr,  /var and swap file systems.

It still gives me an error that it does not recognize /dev/wd1a to do
it's initial mount.

I have looked at the boot procedure and I get the feeling it's having
it's problem executing the command "fsck -p" located in /etc/rc.

Any one that can help me here - it would be great - thanks..
