Re: FreeBSD 14.1 and UEFI boot ignores bootme flag

It does honour the various GPT flags. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <cy@FreeBSD.org> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <cy@nwtime.org> Web: https://nwtime.org e^(i*pi)+1=0 In message <9DEEEE5F-EC21-4CC5-BC5F-A10162D98365@cs.huji.ac.il>, Daniel Braniss writes: > hi Cy, > the boot code is the the latest, copied /boot/loader.efi to = > /mnt/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi > > > On 13 Aug 2024, at 09:50, Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> = > wrote: > >=20 > > In message <0C0CF611-4C88-4EF1-9F9A-3A35D5236854@cs.huji.ac.il>, = > Daniel=20 > > Braniss > > writes: > >> hi, > >> my disk has 2 root partitions, and once I switched to UEFI boot, = > =3D > >> can=3DE2=3D80=3D99t boot the second partition: > >> (the hardware is a bit old, Dell PowerEdge R710 with bios from =3D > >> 05/22/2018) > >>=20 > >> store-08# gpart show -l > >> =3D3D> 40 5857345456 mfid0 GPT (2.7T) > >> 40 81920 1 efi (40M) > >> 81960 8388608 2 root (4.0G) > >> 8470568 8388608 3 root0 [bootme] (4.0G) > >> 16859176 8388608 4 d1 (4.0G) > >> 25247784 8388608 5 d2 (4.0G) > >> 33636392 5823709104 6 zfs (2.7T) > >>=20 > >> it only boots from partition 2. > >>=20 > >> so is there any magic? > >=20 > > Which bootcode do you have in your efi partition? > >=20 > >=20 > > --=20 > > Cheers, > > Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> > > FreeBSD UNIX: <cy@FreeBSD.org> Web: https://FreeBSD.org > > NTP: <cy@nwtime.org> Web: https://nwtime.org > >=20 > > e^(i*pi)+1=3D0 > >=20 > >=20
