I think work has to be done in all camps to make it work more
consistently...I have several machines I use with a combination
of windows/freebsd/linux

fbsdboot and booteasy give different results depending on (it 
appears) system differences.   I don't use lilo yet (I need to learn
how to use it...) but loadlin seems to work everywhere (even
ontrack disks...).
