Either way.. I don't know. I had problems with booting without the boot manager (it wouldn't) and I followed the directions step by step as they were wrote in the hand book. It took a thread I found in Questions (I think) to alert me that the problem wasn't me. Other users are having a similar issue. A boot manager needs to be installed for the time being. It doesn't bother me. I don't reboot often anymore. When I do, I just wait for the selection time out to reach 0 so the boot process can continue. Search the archives. I forget what the title of the post I found was (it's somewhere on my machine, I'm too lazy to look as I'm heading to bed right now but a bit of searching won't hurt you). I say neither malice nor incompetence. Despite my own n00bish problems, FreeBSD is a wonderful, wonderful system to use and manage. There are some things here and there that I wish were different, but that's with everything else. No one is content with what they have and always have a critique for something. There is no such thing as 100% bug-free software and there is no such thing as a test condition that accurately reflects the real world when humans get involved.
