And device.map

Code: 
#less /boot/grub/device.map 
(hd0)   /dev/ad4

Look like grub-probe not recognize bsd slice /dev/ad4s3a... How can I fix it? Thanks a lot.
 
Try to use grub-mkimage(1) and grub-setup(8) directly, e.g.
$ grub-mkimage -o /boot/grub/core.img -c /boot/grub/load.cfg -O i386-pc biosdisk part_msdos part_bsd search_fs_uuid ufs2 ntfs
$ grub-setup -s --root-device='(hd0)' /dev/ad4
where load.cfg contains smth like
Code: 
set root=(hd0,3,1)

Click to expand...
Thanks you very much...
I used under command
$ grub-mkimage -o /boot/grub/core.img biosdisk search_fs_uuid ufs2 ntfs
$ grub-setup -s --root-device='(hd0)' /dev/ad4
1. I don't know load.cfg before, So I didn't use it.
2. i386-pc & part_bsd/msdos complain doesn't exist?
3. I forget use "bsd" module or not...

After boot, grub said "unknow filesystem". and enter grub rescue mode...:p
But use "ls" command in grub rescue prompt, only (hd0), shall be (hd0),(hd0,1),(hd0,2),(hd0,3) I think..
Grub didn't get full information from HDD.
I don't why.
I will fix it in rescue mode...
Thanks you a lot.
 
Thanks, solved.
I use command for install
$ grub-mkimage -o /boot/grub/core.img -c /boot/grub/load.cfg biosdisk part_msdos bsd search_fs_uuid ufs2 msdospart
$ grub-setup --root-device='(hd0)' /dev/ad4

And load.cfg
Code: 
set root=(hd0,3,a)
set prefix=(hd0,3,a)/boot/grub
I can boot to menu mode.
But I can't run grub-mkconfig complete, because "grub-probe: error: no such partition" error.
So I edit grub.cfg
Code: 
### BEGIN /usr/local/etc/grub.d/00_header ###
if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then
  load_env
fi
set default="0"
if [ ${prev_saved_entry} ]; then
  set saved_entry=${prev_saved_entry}
  save_env saved_entry
  set prev_saved_entry=
  save_env prev_saved_entry
  set boot_once=true
fi

function savedefault {
  if [ -z ${boot_once} ]; then
    saved_entry=${chosen}
    save_env saved_entry
  fi
}

menuentry "FreeBSD" --class freebsd --class bsd --class os {
        set root='(hd0,3,a)'
        echo                    Loading kernel of FreeBSD kernel ...
        kfreebsd                /boot/kernel/kernel
        kfreebsd_loadenv        /boot/device.hints
        set kFreeBSD.vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/ad4s3a
        set kFreeBSD.vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw
}

menuentry "Microsoft Windows vista" {
        insmod ntfs
        set root=(hd0,1)
        chainloader +1
}

Now work fine.
I don't know why grub-probe work fail...
If it work fine, I can use grub-install maybe
Thanks you a lot
 
There are a few things not working in grub...I hope the port maintainer work on it and get it going for 8.2. I cannot get thing going myself using i386 8.1. Can someone provide a how to install and get this going.
