I have a 2 disk system, first disk Win95, second disk completely
allocated to to FreeBSD.  The install appears to be clean on disk2 (wd2)

2 questions,

1)How do I specify the second disk as the boot disk when I boot off 
Floopy 

i.e. wd(2.... ????

2) How do I install a boot Manager on Disk 1 that will allow me to boot
FreeBSD off of disk2 ??

Thanx,

dave
