Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2024 01:07:32 UTC
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=276361 Bug ID: 276361 Summary: 14.0-Release iso boot challenges Product: Base System Version: 14.0-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dewayne@heuristicsystems.com.au Downloaded https://download.freebsd.org/releases/ISO-IMAGES/14.0/FreeBSD-14.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso and attempted to boot via virtualbox on Windows10. Without efi box checked, the boot process displays: "FATAL: Cound not read from the boot medium! System halted" or with the efi box checked, I'm unable to exit the startup.nsh loop. Earlier I tried the i386-bootonly.iso on a VirtualBox i386, with the same result. Notes: 1. that I have 6 VM's running FBSD 12.4S on this desktop and 1 running 13.2S which I used to build 14.0-releng (I'm continuing to research different problems there). 2. Virtualbox is used for testing prior to installing on bare metal devices, but unlike https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275326 we don't seem to get past loader stage (via the FreeBSD provided iso). There must be information about talking to the iso boot media but... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
