System: PIII-600 128MB RAM 20GB HDD on an Asus P3B-F mboard
OS's: Win98, FBSD 3.2-R

I already have two dos slices that take up the first 15GB of the drive so I
tried installing FBSD at the end of the disk. The installation went fine but
it won't boot into FBSD. When I hit F3 at boot-up to select FBSD I get a
console beep and nothing happens. Hitting the F1 key takes it right into
windoze w/o any problems.  I've already tried updating the BIOS on the
mboard. Is there a limitation in FBSD (or BootMgr) that prevents booting to
a slice at the 15GB point?

Thanks,
Brandon
