OK - I'm stumped - and probably doing something real dumb...

I've installed 4.3 from the CD1 onto an Intel Tupelo MB, dual processor,
with 2 18G Cheetah SCSI disks under AIC 7899 onboard chipset.  Nothing
fancy - just plain standard installation. (512M swap slice and 17.5G / slice
on Disk 0, didn't do Disk 1 yet)

Now she won't boot!  I tried with the standard MBR - stops saying "missing
operating system".  I tried with FreeBSD Boot manager - I get:
-------------------------------
F1  FreeBSD
F5  Drive 1

Default: F1 _

-------------------------------
but its dead - pressing F1 or Enter (or anything else) yields NO RESPONSE.

Someone - PLEASE klobber me with the clue stick :)

Patrick.
