>> š0032 BIOS can start MBR FreeBSD-10.1-usb-stick installer, bsdinstall by default offers GPT structure for HDD. 0032 successfully run FreeBSD from GPT HDD. Also 0032 can start GPT FreeBSD-11-CURRENT-usb-stick installer, bsdinstall by default offers MBR structure for HDD? (or use last MBR-HDD setting). After install 0032 successfully start FreeBSD-11-CURRENT from HDD.
>>
>> šBut with modern BIOS (for example 0050 - latest at this time): 0050 BIOS can start MBR FreeBSD-10.1-usb-stick installer, bsdinstaller by default offers GPT HDD structure. If install 10.1 with default settings and start 10.1 from HDD -> Error. If GPT HDD manually changed to MBR HDD, then 10.1 successfully starts from HDD.
>>
>> šBut 11-CURRENT-usb-stick has GPT structure and BIOS 0050 can't run it from USB. :-((
>>
>> šWorkaround: Reflash 0032 -> Install FreeBSD-11-CURRENT -> OK -> Reflash 0050 -> 11-CURRENT starts OK from MBR HDD.
>>
>> šQuestion: if this situation doesn't be fixed by Intel, how NUC 2820(2830) new versions of BIOS users can start FreeBSD-11 without BIOS reflashing, if FreeBSD-11-stick.img will be only at GPT structure?
