Right now, my system has two systems (Windows 7 and GNU/Linux), I would like to try FreeBSD (so, yes, triple-booting). The problem is that right now, my system uses a UEFI and a GPT partition, so using FreeBSD-10.0-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img resulted in to being loaded at all. From what I read from the FreeBSD wiki, I understand that UEFI support was merged in HEAD so I tried the newest revision I could find FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-20140918-r271779-memstick.img. Afaik, that image should already have UEFI support, but at least on my system, nothing happened either. On both cases, when using the "compatiblity mode" (or something like CSM), resulted in being able to correctly load the boot menu and both were created as suggested by the handbook (with `dd`).
After reading/researching, I'm not quite sure if this is actually a bug; the image created using `dd` with that revision should have been able to boot; or I am missing something?
The second thing, I've read that there are some ways to try to trick UEFI, or using a bootloader like refind, if I do that, do I lose something important, relevant or there are any known drawbacks?
