I normally use 1:sd(0,a)kernel.
This couldn't be a typo. It must have changed from sd to da for 3.0, no??
from the new trouble.hlp:
The second situation involves booting from a SCSI disk when you have
one or more IDE disks in the system. In this case, the FreeBSD disk
number is lower than the BIOS disk number. If you have two IDE disks
as well as the SCSI disk, the SCSI disk is BIOS disk 2, type 'da' and
FreeBSD disk number 0, so you would say:
2:da(0,a)kernel
To tell FreeBSD that you want to boot from BIOS disk 2, which is
the first SCSI disk in the system. If you only had one IDE disk,
you would use '1:' instead.
