| If, however, you move from BIOS boot to EFI boot you will have to move | things around and create a ESP (EFI System Partition) to place the uefi | bootloader in. Add an ESP yes, "move things around" no - nothing says the ESP has to be at any particular place on the drive, or any particular partition number. It is often partition index 1, and the partition occupying the lowest block numbers, but that's just because it is usually the first one created. An ESP could easily be at the tail end of the drive, or somewhere in the middle, there can even be more than one of them on a drive. kre ps: Martin, there was disklabel output in the OP's original message, but it looked like the standard NetBSD kernel's invented label that is generated when no actual label is on the drive.
