altough, one thing that I got curious about. In the fdisk manpage it

config..). I never found any references to this mbr file in neither man
pages or handbook.

boot0 is the pretty 'F1 FreeBSD' type boot menu. mbr is more like your
standard MS bootloader, that just boots the active slice of the current
disk.

The latter is my favorite, as I despise multi-booting.

I see. Shouldn't this info be in the manpages/handbook somewhere? Like referenced from boot0cfgs manpage or something, and in the boot section in handbook.
