I've just put in a second scsi disk.

My previous installation had boot manager on the 1st and only disk with a 
dos and freebsd partition however I want to dedicate the 1st disk to dos 
(and soon NT) and use the second disk for freebsd.

At any rate I have got freebsd installed on the 2nd disk now and can boot 
the kernel if I use the boot floppy - however the default installation 
must have put the boot manager on the 2nd scsi disk which isn't terribly 
useful for me :-<

So my question is - how do I put boot manager on the 1st disk to 
point to the kernel on the second disk.

I know there's info on this somewhere but I can't seem to track it down - 
The web link from here to Freebsd.org is awful slow sometimes.

TIA

Craig
