Hello all,

I haven’t been using FreeBSD since 8-STABLE times. Recently I tried to
install latest 12-STABLE on my old computer.
But even during initial boot up loader hangs. Eventually I was able to
proceed with installation after replacing loader in the installation disk with one found in my old system 8-STABLE. The same
happened when I tried zfs on root partition.
A lot of things are moving around in /boot over the last year.
Pure speculation; if you're using a usb stick. Mount it from your
currently running system, and

cd <mount-point>/boot
rm ./loader
cp -p ./loader.efi ./loader
umount <mount-point>

Then see if it doesn't work for you. Like I said, pure speculation.
But you indicated an old box. So I think you might find this works.

Best wishes!

I used MBR partition on PATA hard drive. Motherboard was ASUS A8V
(Athlon64).
