Thanks to Stuart Barkley detailed suggestion: >(From memory, YMMV) Reboot for the installation CD into sysinstall. >Select "Configure" then "Fdisk". In fdisk select "W" this will cause >the MBR to be rewritten correctly (I always select the FreeBSD boot >manager, I don't know if that is necessary). I was able to get my 4.9 to boot.
