I've now built a new installation of 5.3 on ad0, and I have a copy of the 4.10 install on ad1. Now there's no question about which is running. I edited ad1's /etc/fstab to change all instances of ad0 to ad1, and now when I hit F5 during bootup to select drive 1, 4.10 boots and runs fine on ad1. If I hit F1 during bootup, then 5.3 boots and runs fine on ad0. To recap, I only installed boot0 (using boot0cfg) on ad0, not on both drives. My computer BIOS boots the ad0 drive, and boot0 gives me a chance to select the ad1 drive. I note that boot0 remembers my last selection, and makes it the default on the next boot. Nice touch.
