Hello,

	When I installed Bootmanager w/ FreeBSD 2.0.5, I get
three prompts when the manager comes up

	F1 DOS
	F2 FreeBSD
	F3 FreeBSD

	Now I wonder why is there an extra prompt for FreeBSD?
I partitioned my harddrive into 2 major partitions, an MSDOS
and the other for FreeBSD.  Then I further subpartitioned the
FreeBSD into a filesystem slice and a swap space slice using
the installation program.

	Thanks for your help!
