I have a similiar question:
At the moment FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 exists on a IDE drive on my machine.
Now I got a Syqest drive (which is a SCSI type) and  installed it there. 
Now my question:
How can I remove my IDE partition (I need the drive for something else)
, so that the boot prompt
will still appear from which I can then select the second drive
(hd(1,a)/386bsd)?

Thanks in advance.

Robert
