erasing grub when someone is attempting to install FreeBSD alongside

How many people actually do that, now that there are so many

At least I do. As invaluable and paradigm-shifting as virtualization is,

I installed RC2 yesterday and noticed that there was no question asked where
to install boot loader (MBR or FB root slice/partition).
That's something needing a fix.

Hi,
I tried to install 9.1-RC2 amd64 on two disks that previously had some version
of Solaris installed (with grub as boot-manager).
The installation would always be successful, but it would just boot to grub and
then sit there.
It's a rather old G1 BL460C blade, but 9.0 installs flawlessly.
