Solved FreeBSD 10.2 version for a new Lenovo TS140

I have a doubt how to install it.
I made a disk of FreeBSD with the UEFI support. But it will install in CSM mode with ZFS.
The Lenovo BIOS have the CSM support, and can even boot on legacy/disable UEFI.

So, should I install the UEFI support version of FreeBSD, or disable the EUFI in the BIOS and use the 10.2 non EUFI? There is a difference? I'm confused...

I wish to use this machine for a server at my work (documents and photos), but will install X, and have some seldom desktop use, and Time Machine backups.

I installed it with the UEFI support version of FreeBSD. All gone fine during the install.
Anyway it can't boot if I set "only UEFI" on the BIOS.

Now iI have a problem with the console... it is perfect during the installation (position, small characters). After the first boot the screen is not centered; it is moved a bit at left. I tried to reinstall and changing the SOL (UTF-8) in the BIOS. Now I get and error like "expected more then 4 tokens...you have 6". And the font is bigger then during the installation... I tried with vidcontrol, but can't read the output on the screen, because I miss the first 4 letters :D Lenovo on default use VT100+. Which should iI use?
