Description Jean-Sébastien Pédron freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-09-11 14:37:20 UTC
I tried the following FreeBSD snapshot on my Clevo W860CU with UEFI
enabled:
FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-20140903-r270990-memstick.img

The boot fails early with the following error:
panic: BIOS smap did not include a basemem segment!

The full picture of the panic is here:
https://people.freebsd.org/~dumbbell/uefi/FreeBSD-Clevo-W860CU-UEFI-no-basemem-segment.jpg

Here's a video of a verbose boot (the quality is really low, I can try
to redo it if this one doesn't help):

When I tried UEFI a couple years ago (with Windows 7), it could boot.

Comment 3 Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-09-21 12:50:06 UTC
The EFI shell (downloadable from http://sourceforge.net/projects/efi-shell ) has a memmap command which will show the memory map EFI will use.
Comment 4 Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-10-21 18:33:46 UTC
The loader also has a memmap command now, which will show the EFI memory map.
Comment 5 Jean-Sébastien Pédron freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-10-21 20:52:24 UTC
That reminds me I didn't try this EFI shell...

Here's the output of the "memmap" loader command:

This Clevo W860CU boots fine with r277776, which includes https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1417.

Thank you!
