Boot Mgr issue

[Graaf_van_Vlaanderen]

On one of my machines I have the FreeBSD bootmgr installed. When trying to jump to the second drive (F5) it doesn't do anything. It used to work though. F1 function still works though. Should I perhaps reinstall the bootmgr? If so what is the recommended way? Is there any config file in the FreeBSD OS that points to this bootmgr?

boot0cfg(8).
If you have no other OS on the second disk, you could try to install the bootloader instead of the boot manager (# fdisk -B ad1).

Is there any config file in the FreeBSD OS that points to this bootmgr?

It has no configuration file. All configuration is done through boot0cfg(8) and stored on the first sector itself.

I have exactly same issue with FreeBSD 8.0 - bootmgr hangs after i press F3 (FreeBSD), F1 (Windows) works fine. I have one hdd, which has 4 slices. 2nd and 3rd occupied by win, 4th one is freebsd.

Any way I can debug this problem?
