The installation went fine but it won't boot into FBSD. When I hit F3 at boot-up to select FBSD I get a console beep and nothing happens. Hitting the F1 key takes it right into windoze w/o any problems. I've already tried updating the BIOS on the mboard. Is there a limitation in FBSD (or BootMgr) that prevents booting to a slice at the 15GB point?
