--- Comment #2 from Eric van Gyzen <vangyzen@FreeBSD.org> ---
The EFI spec says the active flag must not be set on the PMBR pseudo-partit=
ion.
 I imagine the machine is just enforcing the spec.

This very issue is the reason I added this machine to the blacklist.  :-/

The CPU in my T5810 looks like Haswell:

    CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v3 @ 3.50GHz (3491.98-MHz K8-class CP=
U)

My coworker that hit this earlier today is away from his desk.  I'll check =
his
CPU when he's back, though I imagine it's the same.  Out of curiosity, why =
do
you ask?
