Hi All !

I install FreeBSD 2.2.6 on a 2nd master disk.
I keep DOS/NT on a 1st.
I install FreeBSD boot manager on 1st master.
Installation process goes normally.

But when I switch to 2nd disk (via boot manager) 
and try to boot from FreeBSD partition I get an error:
"panic cannot mount root", and then reboot.

What's the reason ?
What can be wrong ?
Any advises ?

Regards, Vladimir.
