Hello,
has someone successfully ported GRUB2[1] to FreeBSD/i386
and FreeBSD/amd64? I see no port sysutils/grub2 in the tree,
even though I know that GRUB2 *can* boot FreeBSD directly
and via chain-loading.
And while we're at it, I'm wondering if there is an effort underway
to make the kernel multiboot-compliant... maybe like NetBSD[2]?

Thanks,

This port does not install GRUB on the master boot record of your hard drive.
To do this, or to use it with a floppy disk, you will need to read the info
page that is installed by the port.
When you will use grub2, you need a floppy or live cd to install it.
But no bsd- based live cd will have grub2 i think.
Sorry for my english :(
Cheers
