+3.1 Repairing an existing FreeBSD installation.
+--- -------------------------------------------
+
+FreeBSD 2.1 now features a "Fixit" option in the top menu of the boot
+floppy. To use it, you will also need a fixit.flp image floppy,
+generated in the same fashion as the boot floppy.
+
+To use it, simply boot the boot floppy, chose the "Fixit" item and
+insert the fixit floppy when asked. You will then be placed into a
+shell with a wide variety of commants available for checking,
+repairing and examining file systems and their contents. Some
+administration experience is required to use this option!
