Has anyone succeeded in getting FreeBSD to boot off the hard disk
on an intel motherboard - the N440BX, specifically, although I've
seen similiar behavior on other intel boards.

It has become a major irritant to have to drive to work to insert
a boot diskette and type sd(0,a)/kernel every time there's a pow-
er failure.

(This is 2.2-STABLE, btw.)

I cannot reset the machine repeatedly while futzing with the BIOS
so I'm hoping someone else has found the right options to set there.
