Hi, I have some doubt about freebsd-boot partition size. According to Handbook:
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/bsdinstall-partitioning.html
On same page, I see an example (figure 2.15) in which freebsd-boot partition is 64kB.
Even on one of my machines (I am pretty sure I used the "guided" partition scheme), I see this:
Can you give me some clarification? Is 512K really a limitation for such partition?
Thank you very much

."the freebsd-boot partition should be no larger than 512K due to current boot code limitations"
On same page, I see an example (figure 2.15) in which freebsd-boot partition is 64kB.
Even on one of my machines (I am pretty sure I used the "guided" partition scheme), I see this:
Code:
# gpart show
=> 34 167772093 da0 GPT (80G)
34 128 1 freebsd-boot (64K)
162 159383424 2 freebsd-ufs (76G)
159383586 8388540 3 freebsd-swap (4.0G)
167772126 1 - free - (512B)
Can you give me some clarification? Is 512K really a limitation for such partition?
Thank you very much
