I don't know. I had problems with booting without the boot manager (it
wouldn't) and I followed the directions step by step as they were wrote
in the hand book. It took a thread I found in Questions (I think) to
alert me that the problem wasn't me. Other users are having a similar
issue. A boot manager needs to be installed for the time being. It
doesn't bother me. I don't reboot often anymore. When I do, I just wait
for the selection time out to reach 0 so the boot process can continue.

Search the archives. I forget what the title of the post I found was
(it's somewhere on my machine, I'm too lazy to look as I'm heading to
bed right now but a bit of searching won't hurt you).

I say neither malice nor incompetence. Despite my own n00bish problems,
FreeBSD is a wonderful, wonderful system to use and manage. There are
some things here and there that I wish were different, but that's with
everything else. No one is content with what they have and always have a
critique for something. There is no such thing as 100% bug-free software
and there is no such thing as a test condition that accurately reflects
the real world when humans get involved.

Good night.
