As your not at the boot loader stage yet for keyboard enabling legacy USB keyboard / mouse support in BIOS may help.

If you see issues with keyboard after the kernel takes over setting hint.ehci.0.disabled=1 may help.

If your installing 11.x then the guides boot partition size is out of date and you should use 512K for your freebsd-boot partition.

For the GPT version (I've never used MBR one) what actual error do you get?

Hi,

I'm in the process of transferring my home server to an Intel NUC. I've zfs
send/receive'd the whole pool to the new drive and first followed
[ZfsOnGpt] but it fails in the first stage boot loader. The USB keyboard
doesn't seem to be recognized so I can't really debug anything.

Then I tried both [ZfsInMbrSlice]
but it complains that it can't find /boot/zfsloader. Again USB keyboard
doesn't work.

Both times I've been very careful to install the bootcodes at the right
place.

1. Any idea why the USB keyboard doesn't work?
2. Any idea what can be wrong in the setups I tried? How can I debug this?
