I'm setting up a FreeBSD system for a friend and would like to "configure"
the menu that booteasy presents.  His disk contains:

	Partition	FS Type		OS
     --------------------------------------------
	1		FAT		WinNT
	2		freebsd		FreeBSD
	3		FAT		Win95

Since both Win95 and WinNT are using FAT filesystems, Booteasy lists them
as "DOS":

	F1 . . . dos
	F2 . . . BSD
	F3 . . . dos

What program writes the boot sector to disk?  How do I edit the labels for the
partitions?  I have not been able to find any man pages on "Booteasy".

As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression.  In both
instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged.
And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the
air--however slight--lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness.
