https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=194359 --- Comment #6 from Colin Percival <cperciva@FreeBSD.org> --- Allan: My laptop doesn't refuse to boot, but it does behave badly (bogus error message) when booting via BIOS + GPT if the fake MBR is not set to active. Running the above-mentioned command fixes this. My understanding from Marcel's commit r251588 is that having the fake MBR set as active breaks UEFI booting, but I haven't tested this myself. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
