 Hello.
 I am a newbie
 I installed FreeBSD 4.9 release to dualboot with
 winXP. All went well untill it was time to finish the installation and reboot. I got 
 the options
 F1 ??
 F2 winxp
 F3 Freebsd
 on the screen.
 
 When I press F2 winxp is booted fine. But when I press F3
 the computer just reboots again and again :-(
 No message from the kernel or anything,it just reboots.
 How can I fix this?

Sounds like the boot blocks didn't get written to that partition.  
Maybe you failed to write the partitions out after setting them 
up during the install?
