            Bug ID: 244085
           Summary: FreeBSD 12.1 install installs corrupted MBR
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: jcarchambeau@gmail.com

This issue manifests itself regardless of drive or hardware.  It's been
consistent on both of my HP Microserver G7 N54Ls and my Lenovo Thinkserver
TS430 under FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE. 

1. Install FreeBSD.
2. Reboot.

Machine either hands at booting or boots to a boot error.

Workaround;

1. Boot FreeDOS
2. fdisk <drive number> /mbr
3. Reboot.
