The FreeBSD Booting Process" = part of the handbook with information about how to recover your bootloader = when using GPT GUID Partitioning? Specifically the part about how to install the bootcode :=20 Embed GPT bootstrap code into a protective MBR: /sbin/gpart bootcode -b /bo= ot/pmbr ada0 =20 I was working on a VMware machine and I had a problem with the bootloader= =2C but the doc only seemed to have the boot0cfg information. I think adding information on how to install the other bootcode is importan= t and a time saver for others. Thanks. -Casey =
