Nice, but I'm not sure if GRUB developers are still stubborn to include framebuffer deffering console take over support (to keep fb for kernel), or did they finally accepted it? It works out of the box with systemd-boot, and it have easy selection shortcuts for multi-boot, either via order numbers, and even included 'w' for Windows and so on, not sure if GRUB have those things as well?Last edited by leipero; 06 July 2019, 07:05 AM.

GNU GRUB is a multiboot boot loader. It was derived from GRUB, the GRand Unified Bootloader, which was originally designed and implemented by Erich Stefan Boleyn. This port does not install GRUB on the master boot record of your hard drive. To do this you will need to read the info page that is installed by the port. This port includes additional patches and fixes making it work properly with ZFS boot-environments.
It's "broken" now, since legacy and UEFI systems get by using FreeBSD's own bootloader and TrueOS moved over to using rEFInd.Last edited by aht0; 07 July 2019, 06:35 AM.
