Hello Community,

I am testing FreeBSD-11.3-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly.iso. It fails to boot 
from UEFI.

My environment:
- CPU: AMD Ryze 3900X
- Mainboard: MSI MEG ACE X570, Default settings, latest BIOS 7C35v18
- RAM: G.Skill RipJaws V DIMM Kit 64GB, DDR4-3200, CL16-18-18-38
- GPU: Sapphire Nitro RX 5700XT

Image was created on a Mac mini 2014 with the following procedure 
described and discussed In 
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/howto-create-freebsd-usb-bootable-disk-from-a-mac.38774/.

FreeBSD 11.3 release is not booting. It hangs after
- Entering boot menu (BIOS)
- selecting the proper entry
- pressing enter
- Messages from Boat loader from Image showing up

I can see on the screen:
…
BootCurrent: 000b
BootOrder 0003 0004 0009 000a 000b(*) 0001 0002
Failed to find bootable partition.

I am able to use 12.1 RELEASE boot only iso image for an installation so 
my actual system setup should be fine in general.

I have checked the Release Notes, Errata and bugzilla but found nothing 
obviously for my issue.
I tested several USB sticks. No difference.
The SHA256 checksum is ok.

Is there an error on my doing or did I miss something?
Could this still be an issue on my mainboard?

Regards

—Christian
