Re: FreeBSD 14.1 and UEFI boot ignores bootme flag

You can choose which partition/pool to boot using boot1.efi with whichever of latest 2 patches at Bug 207940 [1] applied. As boot1.efi would be dropped in the future, I want the same kind of functionality on loader.efi, too. And related PR found: Bug201788 [2] [1] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207940 [2] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=201788 On Tue, 13 Aug 2024 00:02:53 -0700 Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> wrote: > I don't think loader.efi honours the bootme flag.
