Yes. Basically this is what I was asking. I think I hear between the lines there are no caveats like "only if you do this and that".
I'll risk it. There will be an external SSD that I'll replace in my home-built NAS and this comes just right to serve in the role of external *BSD disk.
Any of the other BSDs not supporting UEFI?
Thanks.
But it works proper with UEFI? I am just asking, because last time I went down into this rabbit hole (only by search engine, mind you), I came back with less than clarity...
Or maybe this was dual booting with other OSes generally. Hm. This page => https://wiki.freebsd.org/UEFI assures me it will work.
I have a question: Before I remove a perfectly working installation of Linux + Windows from the built-in drive --- is there a way to do one of the following:
- Install FreeBSD to an external SSD drive, so it can be started with an refind (the UEFI boot manager)
- Try out a live CD *with* a graphical environment.
The point simply is, that the Laptop is "pre-existing" and I'd like to be sure FreeBSD likes the graphics adapter, the touch pad, the NVME controller and the bluetooth controller (all things I had trouble with in the past: I am not accusing FreeBSD especially, Windows and Linux failed me there, but from this I know how chip sets can be a problem, even with the supposedly so compatible Windows).
So, could you advice on how to try out?
