Fresh-install from -current snapshot: Boot loader too large
Hi, I installed FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-i386-20140428-r265054-disc1.iso to a VirtualBox i386 VM. I did the most straightforward install you can possibly do (hit enter repeatedly, except for hostname and password). On the first boot I get the following error message: Boot loader too large Note that FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-i386-20140423-r264794-disc1.iso does not has the problem. -- Jeremie Le Hen Scientists say the world is made up of Protons, Neutrons and Electrons.

On Thu, May 08, 2014 at 10:24:01AM +0200 I heard the voice of Jeremie Le Hen, and lo! it spake thus: On the first boot I get the following error message: Boot loader too large As I recall, this comes from the freebsd-boot partition being too big, where too big is some unround number like 540k or something odd like that. Make sure that partition is 512k or something smaller. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fulle...@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream. ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
