7. Known Problems
==================
 * Booting problem after drive configuration changed

   If you add or remove drives after OS installed, FreeBSD may have problem to
   boot. To solve this problem, first use Rocket controller BIOS setting
   utility to set boot mark on the device on which the boot blocks is installed.
   If the system device order does not change, you should be able to boot up.
   Otherwise you can follow these steps to solve the problem:

   1) Reboot the system, until prompted with

        F1 FreeBSD
        F5 Drive1
        Default: F1

        Invalid partition
        >> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
        Default: 0:da(0,a)/boot/loader
        boot:

   2) Enter configuration about loader, eg:

        boot: 2:da(0,a)/boot/loader

   3) Press 6 for command prompt when boot menu appear

        ok set boot_askname=y
        ok set boot_single=y
        ok boot

   4) Input the location of root filesystem when asked, eg:

        mountroot> ufs:/dev/da2s1a

   5) Press [Enter] when prompted with

        Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:

   6) Then you can modify /etc/fstab according to current configuration, eg:

        # mount -o rw /
        # ed /etc/fstab
        ...

   7) Press Ctl+D and enter multi-user mode. Then you can use "fdisk -B" to
      reinitialize the boot code contained in the disk.

   For details on system commands, please refer to their respective BSD manual.
