Re: uefi boot on Apple Mac
I finally make MacBookPro 11,3 UEFI boot successfully: 1. copy boot1.efi to /EFI/boot/BOOTx64.efi in EFI partition 2. Create a small UFS partition in internal SSD, and installworld and installkernel. 3. Without USB stick, then system really can boot, although the loader still stop at: Start @ 0x802d9000... 4. I can ssh log in and found that culprit is XHCI USB controller does not work in UEFI mode. 5. Xorg and nvidia driver also works. 6. verbose boot log can be found at: http://sw.gddsn.org.cn/freebsd/uefi-messages.txt Cheers, Huang Wen Hui 2014-08-10 16:44 GMT+08:00 Anders Bolt Evensen : > If you're interested, you can try out the following ISO: > https://www.dropbox.com/s/srbunx0agrokcs3/freebsd- > current-uefi-bios-amd64.iso > > The image was built on Friday 8th of August for the amd64 platform. > > I tested out the EFI part on VirtualBox (UEFI 2.X) and my MacBook Pro 17 > inch from 2011 (EFI 1.10), and as far as EFI goes, I successfully booted > the image on both my Mac and VirtualBox (however, booting the image from > BIOS using my Mac was a different story). > > So, as I said, as far as (U)EFI goes, the image should work on UEFI 2.X > based PC's and EFI 1.10 based Macs. > > On 12/07/14 19:22, Nathan Whitehorn wrote: > >> I'd point out that, as of last week, the standard -CURRENT ISOs (and >> generate-release.sh script) make EFI-bootable media by default.

Re: uefi boot on Apple Mac
If you're interested, you can try out the following ISO: https://www.dropbox.com/s/srbunx0agrokcs3/freebsd-current-uefi-bios-amd64.iso The image was built on Friday 8th of August for the amd64 platform. I tested out the EFI part on VirtualBox (UEFI 2.X) and my MacBook Pro 17 inch from 2011 (EFI 1.10), and as far as EFI goes, I successfully booted the image on both my Mac and VirtualBox (however, booting the image from BIOS using my Mac was a different story). So, as I said, as far as (U)EFI goes, the image should work on UEFI 2.X based PC's and EFI 1.10 based Macs.

Re: uefi boot on Apple Mac
I could boot from USB but the console stops after printing the resolution. I tried on a macbookpro of unknown age (not brand new, not very old) and a newer Air. I could tell by the way my USB key blinked that it actually finished booting and went to the installer, and would shut down properly when I hit the power button. I modified my USB key to enable a vt100 serial console on /dev/cuaU0 in /etc/ttys and used a USB serial console where I could login and run bsdinstall if I wanted. I was able to finish a bootable uefi install to a second USB key but the console on all of these installs stops after printing the resolution. It was not clear to me if it that means it just doesn't support the screen or what. X claimed it could not find a console.

As loader.efi and kernel not change at all from USB to CD, I am confuse why you can boot from CD.

It is just step size in bytes, to skip into next line. (sometime it contain gaps related to blank parts of screen, sometime related to round screen line to page size). So if it have mode - 2880x1800x32, it have to be 2880 * (32 / 8) = 11520 or 11520 + (4096 - 1) & 0x_f000 = 12288 (0x03000, 3 4k_pages) > 28800k=stride(4096) *4*1800=0x1c2 > > > 2014-07-07 2:59 GMT+08:00 Adrian Chadd : > > > The linux UEFI peeps have the same problem(s): > > > > http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/10014.html > > > > Look for "stride". > > > > > > -a > > > > > > On 6 July 2014 06:40, Aleksandr Rybalko wrote: > > > On Fri, 4 Jul 2014 22:34:30 +0800 > > > Huang Wen Hui wrote: > > > > > >> Hi, > > >> On my MacbookPro11,3, I got this error message: > > >> > > >> http://sw.gddsn.org.cn/freebsd/uefi.jpg > > > > > > Hmmm, really weird. > > > Looks like wrong info about UEFI framebuffer. > > > Picture said: > > > 1. 2880 x 1800 > > > 2. 4 bytes per pixel (masks cover whole 32bit) > > > 3. but same time stride eq to 4096 (but have to be (width * > > bytes_per_pixel) 4 * 2880) > > > > > >> > > >> cheers, > > >> > > >> Huang WenHui > > >> > > >> 2014-07-04 22:13 GMT+08:00 Ed Maste : > > >> > > >> > On 24 May 2014 19:39, Rafael Esp'indola > > wrote: > > >> > > > > >> > > Yes, I got that in the mac laptops I tried, it worked on a Mac Pro. > > It > > >> > > might be the frame buffer corruption that Ed Maste was mentioning. > > >> > > > >> > I purchased a new MacBook Air yesterday (model identifier > > >> > MacBookAir6,2).

I purchased a new MacBook Air yesterday (model identifier MacBookAir6,2). UEFI boot and vt(4) worked correctly. (My image included Rafael's patch; I haven't tried a boot without.) I also committed a change to display the framebuffer parameters (address, dimensions, etc.) on boot, in order to help identify the source of this issue.
