  I'm attempting to install FreeBSD 2.0.5-ALPHA and I'm having one problem: thekernel does not recognize my second hard drive.  Is there any way to specify
the hard drive before the kernel is loaded(or any other way of getting around
this problem)?  I do remember, however, this drive working by itself on the
2.0 release of FreeBSD.  I've had both drives working on other operating 
systems, though.  Any help would be greatly appreciated...
