Thanks VERY MUCH (and come collect your steak dinner at Cattlemen's Cafe in
OKC, next time you're in the area) for the very quick response. 

I will be happy to try that, but need guidance. This is an install from
CD (burned from FreeBSD-9.1-RC1-amd64-disc1.iso), and I don't know how to
insert a loader hint in that process.
