Trying to bootup this windows laptop HP Folio 9470m with FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-20140811-r269824-memstick.img image on a usb stick to install FreeBSD on it.

If I select "UEFI Hybrid (With CSM)"
-----------------------------------

And then "Boot From EFI file", navigate to the BOOTx64.efi and try to boot it, stop at loader prompt, set "set kern.vty=vt".

"boot": it prints "EFI framebuffer info":

and then panics in vm_map_lookup()

"boot -v": it panics at cam_quirkmatch() and drops to db>. Looks like this:

If I select "UEFI Native (Without CSM)"
---------------------------------------

And then "Boot From EFI file", navigate to the BOOTx64.efi and try to boot it, stop at loader prompt, set "set kern.vty=vt".

"boot": it prints "EFI framebuffer info" and hangs there:

"boot -v": does the same thing as "boot"

I've tried booting up with Legacy boot but that also fails. (Besides, I want to make sure uefi works better ;-))

Tried 10.1-BETA1 image without success:

Booting from EFI file panics right away.

Couldn't even boot the laptop in legacy bios mode. 

I no longer own this laptop. We can close this issue.

Closed: reason: "Overcome by events" (in this case that event was treading this laptop with lenovo X230) :-)
