bootcfg Bad Magic

[BillBelamy]

Hello:

I am new to FreeBSD. I am studying to improve my IT skills. When I try to run boot0cfg on my FreeBSD virtualbox it gives me a "bad magic" error.

I have tried reinstalling multiple times, I am stumped. Could it be because I am on a virtual machine. I would really appreciate any help you can send my way. Thanks a lot.

error: boot0cfg dev/ada0p2: bad magic.

boot0cfg(8) is for MBR partitioning, while /dev/ada0p2 indicates GPT.

Easier to create another VM than to try multi-booting one.
