https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202335 Bug ID: 202335 Summary: FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE i386 memstick does not boot on HP D530 USDT or ASUS H87M-E, but boots on Dell hardware Product: Base System Version: 10.2-STABLE Hardware: i386 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: neel@neelc.org Hi, I am trying to boot FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE i386 memstick on a HP D530 USDT, and I am unable to boot FreeBSD 10.2. When I try to boot from the USB, the BIOS skips it and attempts to boot over the network (there is no OS on my D530's HDD). 10.1-RELEASE i386 boots. If I try to boot the same USB on a home-built PC with a ASUS H87M-E motherboard, the BIOS also skips the USB, and goes to the HDD (w/ FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE). But If I try to boot the USB on a Dell Inspiron B130, I am able to boot successfully. If I try more recent Dell hardware (Inspiron 13 7352 w/ UEFI Secure Boot disabled), I am able to boot from the USB, but the kernel gets stuck on some ACPI error (only on i386, amd64 will boot, but I am talking about the issue on the HP D530 USDT). If I look at the partition table on the FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE i386 memstick image, I find out that the partitions are now in GPT, and I believe this is what is causing the issues. Is there a solution/workaround? Could you please fix this bug? Thanks, Neel Chauhan === https://www.neelc.org/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
