    Hi,sorry to bother you^-^

    I have a problem about the loader of freebsd

    I put loader,kernel.gz and mfsroot.gz in an ext2(dos) file system on
    harddisk,and hope to directly use grub or use grub and loader(or other
    means?) to boot the system.

    When I use grub to transfer loader,I find it(freebsd loader) can't read
    files in ext2(dos) file system,and when i use grub 0.93 of redhat 9.0 to
    directly load mfsroot.gz by "initrd /mfsroot.gz",it fails with "linux
    kernel must be loaded before initrd".

    My goal is to put install.cfg,freebsd kernel and mfsroot on harddisk,then
    boot from harddisk into freebsd,and install it from original freebsd cd.

    Any one helps?
    any answers are appreciated.^-^
