Hi,
I want to boot diskless into FreeBSD-5.4 with grub.
I've setup dhcp to provide boot and ip information, tftp to load the
kernel and nfs to share the root filesystem. It runs smoothly when I use
the pxeloader from FreeBSD, but I can't get it working with Grub.
I tried this grub configuration

Looks good (and matching your fdisk output) and similar to mine which
works OK with 5.2+. I can confirm that kernel kernel doesn't

1. Grub and your mount command are having difficulty reading UFS2, the

On my laptop, I have one hard drive.
Slice 4 holds my FreeBSD partition.
I used the defaults during the install of 5.2, so /boot lives on slice

This causes the grub program to load the first sector of the BSD
