Hey I was under the impression that everyone and their dog is using GPT partitioning in FreeBSD these days, including for boot drives and that I was just being unlucky with my current NAS motherboard (Intel D945GCLF2) having supposedly shaky support for GPT boot. But right now I am having an email exchange with Supermicro support (whom I contacted since I am pondering their X7SPA-H board for a new system), who are telling me that booting off GPT requires UEFI BIOS, which is supposedly a very new thing and that for example NONE of their current motherboards have support for this.
Am I misunderstanding something or is the Supermicro support tech misguided? - Sincerely, Dan Naumov _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
