Hi,

I'm using this:

title FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE
        root (hd1,0,a)
        kernel /boot/loader

title FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT
        root (hd0,2,a)
        kernel /boot/loader

to switch between -CURRENT and -STABLE. You need to specify the FreeBSD root 
partition, normally 'a'.

For more information about FreeBSD partitions and slices, see
