Thank you for explanation. What I would like do is to update loader file keeping old one as backup after freebsd-update, something like # mount -t msdosfs /dev/ada0p1 /mnt # cd /mnt/efi/boot # mv bootx64.efi bootx64.efi.old # install -m 755 -p /boot/loader.efi bootx64.efi And 779KB is too small to put 2 loader files. So I'll try reformatting EFI system partition. --- Yasuhiro KIMURA _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
