Hi, i have a rather peculiar problem. The thing is that the bootmanager on one of our computers loads a bootmanager itself (at least it seems like it). Because first it comes up a choice of: F1 Freebsd Default: F1 and if i press F1 the same screen comes up again but now the default choice if F?. I have reinstalled the computer a few times with different configuration on the partitions but with no luck. I have also reinstalled the bootstrap code (disklabel -B da0 (right?)), both in /stand/sysinstall and manually. I can succesfully boot the computer if i load the kernel from the harddrive booting from a floppy. It worked before then i had NT and FreeBSD installed, and then we removed NT to test Rhapsody, and it was after that i tried to remove Rhapsody with no luck and had to install freebsd that this problem occured. Is this i known problem with an easy solution so please let me know. :-) The computer is an HP Vectra XU 6/200 (PPro200), with an onboard Adaptec aic7880 Ultra SCSI adapter and a QUANTUM VIKING 2.3 NSE 8808 HD. It's running 3.0-RELEASE.
