hello, world\n

# To make FreeBSD boot from drive 2 I need to re-make the boot 
# block.
# 
# I got an error message "boot2 is too big" and stopped.
# 
# Is it anyway to fix it?
 
You frobbed some files to change the default boot device?
You no longer need to tweak the boot block.  Just put

	1:sd(0,a)kernel

in /boot.config and the boot code will read that file
next time and boot appropriately.
