Hi all,
I've been trying to install FreeBSD on my Macbook from a USB stick but I've been unable to get it to boot from the USB. I can get other OSes (Debian for example) to boot fine from a USB stick by pressing 'c' when booting. I have also installed other OSes from the USB stick I'm using now so I don't believe the USB stick is at fault. I have also been running Kubuntu on the Macbook for 2.5 years so I don't think I have to go through the rEFIt steps again.
Any ideas?
Macbook: early 2011 (8,1)
FreeBSD 9.2 RELEASE: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/relea ... mstick.img
Command use to copy image to USB: sudo dd if=FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/sdb bs=64k (From Linux)
