It seems, FreeBSD can't BIOS-boot boxes with too many drives. Is this a known issue in the FreeBSD bootloader? I kinda have to "hide" drives from the BIOS in order to make FreeBSD boot. Trying to boot with 36 disks looks like this: https://ln.tc/s/20260409-105240_2026-04-09-105233_786x456_scrot.png #FreeBSD #bootloader
@FiLiS I’m guessing there’s a good reason why UEFI can’t be used here? because a drive called ] or ‘ is a recipe for future trouble

@dch but UEFI doesn't use drive letters, i'd expect that to work fine here.

@FiLiS

@lw yeah that’s what I meant but apparently I can’t communicate in my native language before midday :-(
@FiLiS
@dch no, you were fine, i just managed to completely misread what you said, sorry :-) @FiLiS
