Booting FreeBSD

[jugalator]

I don't know whether this is a appriate post to make but i cant find another other trends that answers just BSD question.
Hope someone here can help me out. I just installed FreeBSD 4.1. I choosed the boot manager installation during installation but apparently it was not installed and configured. So i was wondering whether i can just add some boot up lines to lilo to boot FreeBSD?

I used to use lilo to boot freebsd. It's been awhile since I've had it installed but I think all you have to add to your lilo.conf file is;

other = /dev/hdxx
label = freebsd

xx = the /dev freebsd is installed on
rerun lilo and you *should* be all set

I have been playing around with freeBSD for the last month and I have found out that the boot loader will only install on the hd with the bsd partions on it. So if you have two hard drives and you install win on the first and BSD on the second the bsd boot loader will install on the second drive. The only way I have found to get around this is to go into your bios and chage your boot device to the second hard drive.
