You are correct, sir.  I commented out the reference to my freebsd partition 
on ad1 and all is well.  But I ran fsck on it and it declared it clean.  
Odd.

I guess I'll have to get a UPS for this thing.  This is the 2nd time this 
has happened.  The last time was with Linux, and my system was totally 
hosed.

Thank you very very much.  I'm glad that I won't have to shoot myself now.
