So then RELENG-12 is not "Standards" compliant. While 13-CURRENT is? Can not tell if you do not provide actual information, we can not really tell too much. However, based on the partition tables below, I can tell a bit. Those disks are using GPT, there is EFI partition, which does suggest UEFI boot and not BIOS boot. There is no freebsd-boot partition, meaning the standard pmbr boot block does not work (if installed) — pmbr does search for freebsd-boot and will load its content and jumps on it. Without seeing your sector 0, I can not tell what code is there (if any), and based on partitions on that system, it is possible the BIOS boot is not installed at all. In a similar way, without seeing EFI partition content, we can not tell if UEFI boot is actually installed - EFI partition should have FAT file system with specific directory tree. To make things better, the exact description would be helpful, so the devs taking care of installer could review the information and make fixes. rgds, toomas > IOW I attempted in early October to install each of the (13-CURRENT) install > images available.
