The slightly superior HP ProBook 440 G7 features in bug 255073.

In FreeBSD 14, HP ProBook 440 G6 works well.
But it not work in other Motherboard:z590e  CPU i7-11700K.

For what it's worth, I hit what appears to be the same failure when booting the 13.1-RELEASE CD on the Pentium / Supermicro P5STE system described in bug #270495.

Actually, I spoke too soon. It seems that my case may be a different scenario - hitting an exception.  At first I thought the "can't find `/boot/entropy`" message was related to the exception, but I suspect that's incorrect. Will file a separate bug report.

Filed bug #270534 for my issue. Sorry for the noise.
