Did you use the same drive geometry on both disks ?
To be more specific, did you install FreeBSD with
a cooperative partitioning, which allows booting
multiple OS's ?!
During FreeBSD installation you have been prompted
for that and I hope you choosed the correct option.

You can see this by calling /stand/sysinstall
Menue: Custom->Partition
