>Description:
choose / adjust the booting slice doesn't work with:
boot0cfg -s disk
on the next boot
>How-To-Repeat:
- divide a disk into two sclices
- install FreeBSD 7.2 RELEASE on slice 1
- reboot
- install FreeBSD 7.2 RELEASE on the other slice
- start FreeBSD (for example slice one; chosen by the FreeBSD bootmanager)
- to select from which disk and slice is booted (example boot0cfg -s2 da0)
- reboot
- u can see that slice two (F2) is selected
- BUT FreeBSD starts from slice 1
