I respond to myself.
Did it with lilo and I can start FBSD now.
Ther is an other pb :
how can I disabling my mouse in console ???
A message is continuing displayed 'can't ........ cuaa0  .... is busy=20
'
The connected mouse-port is com1 on a serial microsoft protocol.
She worked on the install of FBSD but now no more.
So did a /stand/sysinstall and reinstalled the mouse.
Didn't help.
Any help is very appreciated.
