B. Use GPT, which does not have the CHS baggage. It is easier and more versatile. My systems with GPT disks don't complain about track alignment. Or maybe that's ahci(4)'s doing.I never found a way to boot from different partitions, much less different disks with GPT.
Grub (or grub2) can do it. I haven't tried it because other operating systems I multiboot do not support GPT anyway. If you're booting multiple versions of FreeBSD, see gpart(8) for some partition attributes that may help. Or even consider ZFS boot environments.
