Both images booted to the beastie menu but hung loading the kernel. The only way I could get it to boot was to manually load the kernel at the loader prompt and boot. I was also unsuccessful performing a network install due to what I think was the download filesystem being read only. I was able to install from the bundled distribution.

With FreeBSD 11.1 the latter system needed a freshly written USB stick to be treated with "gpart recover da0 && gpart set -a active da0" before it would boot, so this is certainly an improvement.

Re: Call for Testing: 12.0-CURRENT amd64 memstick installer boot-testing wanted
Hi. Booted as expected on ThinkPad T420. Fixed with descrete (nvidia) GPU, CPU internal GPU is disabled. Both UEFI and Legacy (CSM) boot are enabled. UEFI first : Boot on UEFI mode. [Confirmed efifb is used.] Legecy first: Boot on CSM mode. [Confirmed vt(vga) is used.] UEFI boot is much faster than legacy (CSM) boot. Is firmware version needed?
