Sorry for replying to my own post, but it seems related. These
systems, being SMP systems are using the bsd.mp kernel. I wanted to
have the system boot into bsd.mp by default and I did this by:
# mv /bsd /bsd.up
# mv /bsd.mp /bsd
And I can tell it which one to boot into at the boot prompt:
boot > wd0a:/bsd.up
or
boot > wd0a:/bsd
I would have preferred to do this by telling it to boot bsd.mp rather
than shuffling files around. I read boot.conf and boot man pages but
was none the wiser. How do I point the bootloader at a specific
kernel?
