Note that you may need to do more than just this, especially if your
machine is on a network. It pays to go right through rc.conf (it's not
that long). Things like "hostname" and perhaps "domainname" need to set
up, and an entry for "ifconfig_le0"(which will look something like
ifconfig_le0="inet <your-host-ip> netmask <your-netmask>"

As someone else mentioned, you need to add "-a" to the boot string. You
had a 5000/1<something> didn't you? If you have a 3100, you'd need to
type "auto" instead of "boot".
