Edit: a user posted a solution, which was to enter eufi mode and to change the resolution with gop set
which can be done from 'escape to loader'
i personally used gop set 3
My laptop will not boot the freebsd installer (12.1 x64) properly
It is a HP probook 450 g1
What I have tried so far:
- trying freebsd 11.3, 11.1 and just 11
- restricting the vram to the smallest amount
- disabling all devices besides necessary ones, the ones the bios allowed me to disable, anyways
- disabling usb 3.0
- disabling cpu features such as multi core, vt-x and other security features
- testing my install media on another machine (works fine)
- testing another OS on this laptop, linux, windows etc, works fine
I apologize for the large photos
This is what happens with legacy boot, it does not make any progress and remains frozen here forever:
So I tried booting with EUFI, both hybrid and native. hybrid yields the same results, but native gets me a little further before causing a larger issue. Screen corruption, which gets worse every second.
I appear to still be able to interact with settings on the installer but I can't read anything
