"Operating System not found" on "Thinkpad Edge E120"

[sys_dev]

Hi people.

My goal: FreeBSD 9.0 amd64 RC3 installation on my laptop with GPT+ZFS. My laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E120. I downloaded FreeBSD-9.0-RC3-amd64-memstick.img and wrote this image to USB. After I installed FreeBSD like URL: http://www.aisecure.net/2011/05/01/root-on-zfs-freebsd-current/. When I restarted my laptop I saw:

"Operating System not found"

How can I resolve this problem?

Not sure how to solve the problem. The link that you provide, however, contains a reference to a newer version of the guide (http://www.aisecure.net/2011/11/28/root-zfs-freebsd9/). Perhaps following this newer version will give the desired result.

Or you might want to peruse a guide from these forums: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=12082 or http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=27618.

SNK:
I have run like: http://www.aisecure.net/2011/11/28/root-zfs-freebsd9/. But I see

Operating System not found

I thought that my BIOS was old. I saw in the BIOS setup 1.08 version. Then I updated from 1.08 to 1.14 version. But this BIOS update didn't help me.

I think that FreeBSD cannot EFI booting of Lenovo, or Lenovo BIOS is bugged?

What else?

Some Lenovo models do have BIOS problems that affect GPT booting (T420, T520). Maybe this will help: http://www.rodsbooks.com/efi-bootloaders/refit.html. (Untested by me, I have nothing with EFI yet.)

It is very difficult for a FreeBSD newbie, but I will try. Thank you wblock@!
