Hello everyone,

	I tried to install the FreeBSD 2.0 on my 2nd IDE hard disk (wd1).
But as it finished the 1st floppy and reboot, it failed to find the kernel.
It still stuck to wd(0,a)/kernel. I had to key in wd(1,a)/kernel to 
help it find its kernel.

	Is there any workaround to make it boot from wd(1,a)/kernel 
automatically ? It is somehow inconvenient.
