I feel such a newbie again after 4 years of extensive FreeBSD usage, but
I never have been in a situation before where I needed to do this:
I wonder what setting I have to change in the FreeBSD bootloader prompt
to use the kernel which resides on the floppy to boot my actual system.
I tried setting the rootdevice to something that should be my disk, but
it doesn't seem to work. This is a faily basic question so I hope no
additional information is needed about my environment.
Thanks for your time ;)
-Stephan
