Unable to boot

Q

Qoo

I'd really like to have FreeBSD on my laptop but this has always kept me from using it on the laptop.

After a new installation, I always get a kernel panic after reboot and I can't find any other answers why. I don't think it's the hardware either because It's had Windows 8.1 and the Ubuntu and Mint on it before without any problems.

Any idea what's causing this?

It's an Asus X551MAV with N2830 Celeron. I've never been able to get to working with 10 so trying 11 instead and that seems to work so I think I'll stick with that until 11-RELEASE. Thank you for the response.
 
I had same issue with FreeBSD 10.2 RELEASE UEFI image on Asus Z170i motherboard with Intel i5 6600k. But FreeBSD 10.2 RELEASE without UEFI works perfectly fine.
 
10.2-RELEASE has an issue with UEFI boot. Use 11-CURRENT or 10.3-RELEASE when it will be available.

There's been a fair amount of discussions on the FreeBSD mailing lists, lately. Specifically the freebsd-stable@ list, as I remember. You should be easily able to browse the lists from the link I provided. Or perhaps better, subscribe to one -- also possible from the link I provided. :)

Hope this helps.

I am subscribed to freebsd-stable (and a few others). That was why I was asking - I thought you had a specific issue in mind. No worries. :)
