On my initial attempt to do this, I somehow made the system unbootable.

I have a working installation with the legacy GRUB, but I don't want
to touch that because I am in the middle of doing some work with the
FreeBSD on that system and don't want that to be unbootable.

So I've reinstalled Karmic alpha 6 on the original disk, and am now
updating it. Then I'll try changing the grub.cfg and see if I can boot
into BSD.
