Summary: [half-patch ?] grub-install doesn't recognise root partition on FreeBSD
Version: 0.93
Type: software bug

Message:
FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE system.
File systems as follows:

/dev/ad4s3c on / (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/ad4s6 on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates)
procfs on /proc (procfs, local)

when using grub-install '(hd0)'
(hd0 == /dev/ad4)
i got:
/dev/ad4s3c does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.

The convert function in grub-install script 
converted /dev/ad4s3c to /dev/rad4 as '(hd0)'
and my /dev/fd0 to /dev/rfd0 as '(fd0)'

These were written to device.map.

Deleting 'r' from sed expressions helped with /dev/ad* and (fd0) remains 
/dev/rfd0 but it seems to install on floppy anyway.
I'm attaching my changes in a patch.
