deadbeefmonster,

Frustrated in that I can't seem to get to boot on my Thinkpad X1 Carbon (7th gen). It installs fine, but it seems no amount of bios fiddling will allow it to boot after install (with or without FDE).

I did buy the X1 7th gen because of @jcs's instructions at https://jcs.org/2019/08/14/x1c7 - and followed them, just get nothing, no matter what I try to boot to or what options in the bios I change.

FreeBSD boots and boots. :\ Back to Kubuntu again for a while. Wasted time is sometimes just wasted time.

@deadbeefmonster What does it do when it won't boot?

deadbeefmonster,

@jcs It doesn't get to the OpenBSD boot prompt. It's like the bios tries the device but there's nothing to boot from what it can tell.

@deadbeefmonster When you installed did you have it initialize the whole disk or install into an existing partition?

deadbeefmonster,

@jcs I did whole disk.
