When the system boots, it will use the boot manager from the first available disk, the other disks aren't even looked at.

You can:

a) Install the boot manager to the first partition, you can do this by booting the FreeBSD CD-ROM again and going to:
o Configure
o Fdisk
o Select ad0
o Press W
o Select Yes
o Select BootMgr

You should be done now ... Be sure to read the help messages/text, don't just mindlessly follow these instructions

b) Boot from the second hard disk (You can change this in your BIOS).
