Hi, I accidentially ordered a Sata SSD disk which diskinfo reports a sector-size 4K instead of 512 bytes. Trying to get it to boot under FreeBSD appeared impossible. Then I started looking into the boot0,1,2 and loader and the assumptions they make about 512 byte sector size LBA :-( Anyone has any recommendations or experience about how to use native 4K disks with FreeBSD? --HPS
