Bascially I followed this post online. http://www.glenbarber.us/2011/11/12/Dual-Booting-OS-X-and-FreeBSD-9.html And the tragedy happened. I do remember, as the post said, typed gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptboot -i 3 ada0 By the way, I did installed rEFIT on Mac OS After rebooting, I see neither my Mac boot option nor the FreeBSD boot option. Even after holding Option key... The only stuff can boot is if I insert a CD (say, the FreeBSD live CD)... My installation was successful, but the boot loader was messed up! How can I fix this? Thanks! Alfred
