I understand where everyone is coming from. I uninstalled PC-BSD and I am currently just "playing around" with other BSD OS's. PC-BSD seems to be the only one I was actually able to get installed without any problems and boot after the install. So back to my original thought is just to keep...
It's ok. I know it is based on FreeBSD and not that different. It was also confusing since the install of PC-BSD gave me the option to install it or FreeBSD. So I assumed that this forum was just as good to get me started learning about BSD in general, especially FreeBSD.
I am not too...
Never mind answering people. I didn't realize questions about PC-BSD are not allowed here, which I found out in another post I made. Sorry to waste space and time here.
I thought it was allowed to post here with PC-BSD questions. I never get answers at their forums or they take awhile, thought this one would be more friendly. I am coming over from Linux (and very light Windows user.)
Never mind if it such a big issue. I will mark the thread as solved and...

Strangely...
Yes. This worked perfectly, aside from user error the first time I tried this, (lets just say it was a dumb mistake, lol) I am just glad nano was there :)
Thanks again.
I Have been to the PC-BSD forums and even if it isn't exact answers from here, they are close enough. I will figure out the rest, lol.
I just had to reinstall PC-BSD. The bootloaders for Xubuntu, Suse and PC-BSD where not playing nicely. So I just decided to get everything installed in the root...
I am completely new to BSD in general. I am familiar with Linux.
I am using PC-BSD 8.0
Now in Linux I could tell you easily what hard drives/partitions everything is on. But I am not at all use to slices, etc.
So here is what I have, (in Linux Language.) I have three Sata and one IDE...
