Okay, I've managed to get it to allow me to boot FreeBSD, but when I do:

>> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 1:wd(1,a)/kernel
boot: 1:wd(1,a)/kernel
Not ufs
No /kernel

what is the syntax for 1:wd(1,a)/kernel?
currently,
wd0 = disk1 (325 FAT)
wd1 = disk2 (2014 partitioned)

wd1s2 = FreeBSD
wd1s1 = extended (fat)
wd0s1 = FAT32

keep in mind im quite new at this :]
thanks,
-mark
