When I boot from a burnt CD, the screen keeps black, with the blinkingunderscore, nothing else happend. When I make an USB bootable stick, I've got a message saying that /boot/loader was not found. Having a look into /boot, I noticed that indeed, there's no loader anymore. But there a loader.efi, which wasn't in FreeBSD-7.2-RELEASE (the last I tried). I tried copying loader.efi to loader, but as expected, it says me 'invalid format' and still does not want to boot... What happened to loader? Did I download the wrong iso? Did I miss something? Also, why other archs have their -memstick.img, and ia64 have not?
