Hi Al,

 ide-2,

That=B4s because your disk partition, where FBSD is expected to boot from,=
=20
has changed from ad0s?? to ad1s??. You should be able to manually change=20
this, when your boot process stops.
Anyone out there, who knows the place this is hard coded, to change it=20
permanently?

Ciao
Siegbert
