The actual message is not, strictly speaking, an error. It just means that you're bootstrapping the non-EFI way, and your machine's firmware does not adhere to a convention (I believe from DOS+Windows 95 and the 1990s) for marking "not an MBR virus and safe" firmware add-on disc device I/O handlers.

It's unlikely that F000:F0BF is actually unsafe, as that's in (notional) ROM.

This message is very likely a red herring.

The odd thing is that the linear address does not match the segmented address.

It's likely not the true cause of your problems, though; but the mis-match might be symptomatic.

One after the other, Linux distributions are dropping support for the Intel x86 32-bit architecture. This is a concern when running legacy hardware, as well as for embedded systems still based on the Intel 32-bits architecture.

Open Source OS Still supporting 32-bit Architecture and Why it's Important

One after the other, Linux distributions are dropping 32-bit support. Or, to be accurate, they drop support for the Intel x86 32-bit architecture (IA-32). Indeed, computers based on x86_64 hardware (x86-64) are superior in every way to their 32-bits counterpart: they are more powerful, run faster, are more compact,

I wanted to replace a broken old #Debian installation with #BSD.
But the target machine is one of those rare 32-bit #UEFI systems without #BIOS CSM and it looks like there are no prepared BSD images for this platform type.

It's an #IntelAtom Z3735F with X64 support, but the firmware don't activate it.
I think it's strange for an #IA32 machine to come without BIOS support.

Finally, it will become a 12 i386 which has built-in support for UEFI IA32.

Too bad it doesn't work with BSD.

Hello! Let's get my #introduction going here.

Professionally right now I work as an SME in a #PenTesting group for a regulatory company, but it's really not my bag of tea in the long run. That I can feel. I much prefer to be in an investigatory and tool-making field for something related to #DFIR . I was especially happy doing #ReverseEngineering of #malware .

I'm into reverse engineering, assembly languages like #IA32 and recently #ARM / #ARM64, programming (old classics like C/C++ / #Python but learning the newer stuff like #RustLang ), big into #forensics, #RasPi and #Arduino projects and such.

Still trying to figure out what I am career wise, though, like job title and such! It's all great fun to me, just haven't found the direct niche to sink into.

Hobby wise, I'm also really into #GuildWars2! Long time gamer at heart.
