Hi!
I think you have to change and reinstall the bootblocks of your
FreeBSD partition. Take a lock in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/boot.c There
you have to change the line
part = unit = 0;
into
part = 0;
unit = 1;
recompile (make; make install) and install them via (if wd0 is your
FreeBSD disk)
disklabel wd0 > dl.wd0
diaklabel -Rr wd0 dl.wd0 /usr/mdec/wdboot /usr/mdec/bootwd
After changing the disks FreeBSD should boot automatic from your
second drive. Another possibility is to enter when the boot prompt
appears:
wd(1,a)/386bsd
i guess, but take a close lock at the message the boot loader prints
on the screen. For further question also take a lock in the FAQ file for
FreeBSD.
Good luck
Lars
