How to update bootcode on UEFI layout? I created a GPT partition with type efi (1 GB) as well as a 512KB partition typed freebsd-boot. I'm new to EFI and the way the notebook now behaves is really strange. While the USB drive image used to boot with new console enabled, it now boots again with the old console and 800x640 resolution. This might indicate some minor but very effective mistake I made.
