"Removable media does not need to be GPT formatted in order for UEFI to boot from it. You need to create efi/boot folder on a FAT partition on a removable medium and place your UEFI bootloader there. File name must be bootx64.efi for X86-64 architecture. Booting in Legacy or BIOS mode will be handled without changes - via MBR. In pure UEFI boot mode it will read /efi/boot/bootx64.efi file.
Please note also, that FAT partition should be addressed by the first MBR partition entry and be active."
So right now I guessing what file to put down in this bootable directory?
The cited shell-script up above to rename it, file size is 1.7 kb or a file named
"boot.catalog" with a flie size of 2 kb but this is an unknown file (application/octet-stream)?
Any hints?
BTW coming back to the very outset ot this thread, there must be a hard link set by wheezy or system.d, because any usb-stick that once has been in touch whith wheezy only works properly on squeeze, when I type as root in the terminal
otherwise I am forced to work
a bit more complicated to copy files, just like
and afterwards
I am aware there is jessie burning up the charts.

When mounting a USB stick or pen drive on a FreeBSD machine I always issue the following command:

I would probably set all my rubber points here to get some real help for creating a boot device on a usb-stick. There is no CD-drive on this machine, thats why I need to use a usb-stick. And scrumming in a CD-drive to fuddle around in the fstab or something like that is out of reach.
My wisdom so... (9 Replies)
