I ' ve seen quite a few problems with booting with FreeBSD 11 . On one particular MSi motherboard , the MBR format never produces a bootable disk . GPT works , but neither with a Samsung m . 2 SSD , nor a standard SATA SSD . Both are seen and can be used from the installer , though . It seems to be working OK off of an MBR Plextor m . 2 SSD , but I couldn ' t tell you why . I can say , though , that I reinstalled so many times I ' ve gotten a full reinstall down to less than six minutes . NetBSD , on the other hand , boots from any option on this particular machine . Not sure what ' s up with FreeBSD ' s bootloader , but it ' d be nice if the old 8 bit BIOS stuff died and we could all have reliable GPT UEFI booting . <| sep |> Here ' s a video improve FPS .
