I'm sorry if this is not the right Mailing list to post but I hope someone can 
point me or at least give some hints to look for as I'm almost clueless. I see 
no reason why it can't boot of my drive after installing FreeBSD, although this 
is not my first BSD install, but is there anything specific that must be set 
during the install (I doubt)? I have erased all the slices on the drive then 
pressed on "A" to create the FreeBSD slice Automatically (it created three 
slices and one of them is ad0s1 and I have no clue what are the other two for), 
then I Auto labeled the slices from the installer and continued the 
installation. :(
