Hello Misc@ I just installed OpenBSD 6.0 on a Dell PowerEdge R230 and it went well except that I did not get EFI to work.
First boot with BIOS in EFI mode from USB install60.fs started off with the boot> prompt, loading kernel, and then it hung just after printing entry point at 0xf001000 [7205c760, 34000804, 24448b12, b4c0a304] approximately. So the kernel did not start - no blue printouts. Short story - I did set the BIOS to "BIOS" boot mode (their name for MBR, apparently). Installed by creating the GPT table manually (fdisk -ig -b 960 sd1) and then did a normal install. Checked that installboot with -v claimed to install the EFI code. Set the BIOS back to EFI mode and one-shot booted of sd1. It hung at the same point. I had Secure Boot disabled all the time. Any clues why EFI did not work for me on this machine? Here is the dmesg after installing to softraid mirror on sd0 and sd1: OpenBSD 6.0 (GENERIC.MP) #2: Mon Oct 17 10:22:47 CEST 2016 r...@stable-60-amd64.mtier.org:/binpatchng/work-binpatch60-amd64/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP RTC BIOS diagnostic error 80<clock_battery> real mem = 17119961088 (16326MB) avail mem = 16596631552 (15827MB) mpath0 at root scsibus0 at mpath0: 256 targets mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.8 @ 0x8ef68000 (43 entries) bios0: vendor Dell Inc. version "1.4.5" date 08/09/2016 bios0: Dell Inc.
