Hi Mark, I ran the command you gave me, but still no good:

joncheng# boot0cfg -Bv ad0
#   flag     start chs   type       end chs       offset         size
1   0x80      0:  1: 1   0xa5    318:254:63           63      5124672
2   0x00    319:  0: 1   0x0f    779:254:63      5124735      7405965

version=1.0  drive=0x80  mask=0xf  ticks=182
options=nopacket,update,nosetdrv
default_selection=F1 (Slice 1)
joncheng#

I rebooted, and I still only got 1 choice only.
Thanks for your help,
-Jon
