So I've been searching for hours now, and it appears that short of  
reading the C code, there's no documentation of the boot2 menu prompt.
Sure, it says drive:driver(unit,slice,part)
But no combination of those three that I can find actually works.
There's two LUNs:
    drive 0: single 2TB slice
    drive 1: 264GB, with root, swap, etc
How do I tell boot2 to find the loader on disk1?
1:da(1,a)
1:da(1,1,a)
1:da(0,1,a)
1:da(0,a)
0:da(1,a)
0:da(0,a)
...etc  none of them work.
