Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi all! Earlier today, I installed 2.1.0 on a machine at work via ftp. I asked it to install the bootmgr. It did so, but, selecting 'F2' for BSD does not work! It will only boot the DOS partition. I can boot from the floppy, then enter the 'wd(0,a)/kernel' and it does boot FreeBSD from the HD; no problem. But, to get to the boot prompt I have to boot from the install floppy, then enter the command. How do I reinstall the bootmgr so I won't have to use the floppy? Paul
