Hi there. I tried booting FreeBSD-12.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso on a system
here, which didn't work, and I found that
FreeBSD-12.0-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso
did work on that same system. Another [older] system I had was working with
FreeBSD-12.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso, but after I had reason to change that
older system to UEFI boot mode, I found it also would not boot the 12.1
ISO any longer
A successul UEFI boot of 12.0-RELEASE-amd64-disc1 shows many lines of EFI
information to the console, and nearing the bottom:
BootOrder: 0001 0002 0003 0004[*]
BootInfo Path:
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x14,0x0)/USB(0x5,0x0)/USB(0x2,0x0)/Unit(0x3)/CDROM(0x1)
BootInfo Path: VenHw(<UUID>,<octal>)
Ignoring Boot0004: No Media Path
Trying ESP: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x14,0x0)/USB(0x5,0x0)/USB(0x2,0x0)/Unit(0x3)
Setting currdev to cd3:
-
And, that last line is a spinning cursor, after which becomes:
Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf
And continues on from there. However, the attempt to boot 12.1-RELEASE
never loads the loader and allows it to boot. The console output
for 12.1-RELEASE is below. Can anyone help me figure out if it's something
I need to do? How has 12.1 changed w.r.t. 12.0 for UEFI?
The 12.1-RELEASE shows the same as above until starting with "Trying ESP":

Setting currdev to cd8:
Failed to bind bootable partition
press any key to interrupt reboot in 5 seconds
Let me know why 12.1-RELEASE is not behaving the same way on my systems...
Thank you.

Not trying to hijack this thread,
But on a similar note; Wile I'm able to boot/install from them.
None of the October (12.1) install images will produce a bootable install.
So I'm stuck on RELENG-12. This is on a Core 13 second gen.
IOW my problem is the inverse of yours.
