I just tried to install FreeBSD 3.2-S, AGAIN.  This time via FTP from =
ftp.freebsd.org.  Again, the install appears to have worked -but- after =
I restart my machine LILO refuses to boot FreeBSD.  The other three =
operating systems Windows 95, RedHat 6.0 and Caldera 2.2 continue to =
boot properly.  FreeBSD 2.2.7 was installed and also working properly =
before I installed 3.2.  Can anyone tell me what I did / am doing wrong?
I installed 3.2-S on the second IDE drive (wd1) in slice 2 - wd1s2.  I =
would have thought that the boot address would have been =
1:wd(2,a)/kernel, but FreeBSD thinks the default should be =
1:wd(1,a)/kernel.  I've used all the values from zero to 3, as in =
1:wd(x,a)/kernel, and none of them work.  But why "Not ufs"?  Is root =
truly not formatted?  Is kernel missing?  Should I give up on stable and =
go to current?
