Hello,
I am a newbie about FreeBSD but I like this gorgeous OS, elegant and
powerful. But FreeBSD is again mysterious for me. I have two problems.
First problem :
I have two partitions on my hard disk (Western Digital 20GB) with
FreeBSD 5.1 and Windows Server 2003.
At present time my Boot loader displays :
"F1 FreeBSD
F2 ??
Default : F1"
(F2 corresponds to Windows Server 2003).
But I would like to replace "??" by "Windows Server 2003".
How to do this ? Is there a specific file for this ?
Can I modify "/boot/loader.conf", "/boot/loader.conf.local" or
"/boot/defaults/loader.conf" ?
Is there a modification of a specific file ?
I would like to solve this problem "unaesthetic" and ugly. No response for
the moment at :

Thanks for the informations on this subject.
Other problem :
On my system I have to add a comma after the last username to allow
normal user to shutdown PC.
"vi /etc/group"
operator:*:5:root,username1,username2,username3,
I don't understand the reason of the comma after the last name (for
example : username3).
On the other hand I understand perfectly the reason of the comma
between two usernames.
If the comma is missing (after username3) I can't do a "shutdown -r now"
or "shutdown -h now" or "shutdown -p now"
With the comma after the last username, I can do a "shutdown -... now"
