Thanks, that helps. I'll try to duplicate this failure mode since I have Dells, IIRC this virtual emulated CD drive shows up as a USB device. > Med v?nlig h?lsning/Best Regards > Linus Sundqvist > System Engineer, Loopia AB > > On 05/07/18 09:17, Toomas Soome wrote: > > Could you check, show currdev from OK prompt before setting it. > > > > Somehow the boot device path is shown but we fail to recognize it (as seen by error message). However, the lsdev -v does show the path, so the efipart.c seems to do its work correctly. I feel, there should be some corner case in efi/loader/main.c where we detect the boot device. > > > > Rgds, > > Toomas > > > > Sent from my iPhone > > > >> On 5 Jul 2018, at 09:32, Linus Sundqvist <linus.sundqvist@loopia.se> wrote: > >> > >> Running these commands makes the boot menu show up, and then takes me to the BSD installer!
