5.1-RELEASE tested, yielded the same result: "Missing operating system". The 
installation can boot on a new machine, but can not boot on the 486. Seems 
like the source of the error is the capabilitiy of the mainboard. I've given 
up. FreeBSD will not work on this noob machine. Next: lots of floppy OSs.
