Finally I've captured some sh photographs of the running minimal freeBSD system

No x.org here. Even mc can't run after the pkg install! It needs proc filesystems installed mounted cfg first

I have found an interesting quirk with my freeBSD installation, running on my SATA SSD, which I mount through an USB tray, directly to the USB port on the computer.

As long as i leave the second port of the USB tray open, everything runs fine and smooth. The moment I mount another drive in the second port, freeBSD only does the initial part of the startup sequence and then complains that it cannot go any further.

No further explanation given

Seeking for log files is not an option because the operating system itself doesn't boot.

Where in the documentation should I look for this type of issue?

not a freebsd user, i'm an openbsd user, so take my tips with a grain of salt. it sounds like you are doing something weird that freebsd's devs probably don't test for (booting a ssd via a usb controller). may I ask why you are booting this way? what sort of errors show (if any) when 'it doesn't go any further'? we need more info.

ofc, this goes without saying, but mstdn is *not* official freebsd support. I highly recommend going to ask for support on those channels too.

The following must have occurred.

The installer did not use UUID to identify the boot partition. I assume it is because I use the semi-automatic method. I will repeat the installer to see how it happens when I use the full manual method;
I presume that I can then, tell the system that it needs to use the UUIDs for the identification of the partitions regarding root, home and the partitions regarding swap.

Until I get a dedicated SSD for my BSD installations, I shall not be able to make a separate partition for usr and other important sections of the tree which are better managed on separate partitions

I've obtained a separate HDD for my BSD installations.
This time I've made sure that I did not even turn off the SATA tray, in which the HDD resides

I've been able to repeat the exact error which I had gotten when I installed the freeBSD Operating System on the SSD:

After booting a Fresh installation, the FreeBSD bootloader barfs at the fact that it cannot find the kernel even though the drive was not moved

The fact that I used ghostBSD as a flavour variant doesn't matter since it's the latest version of ghostBSD which resides on the latest version of FreeBSD.

I love it when I find little bugs which are easily repeatable
I'll grind to the depths to detect why the bug occurs, repeat it and when I know why, I'll report it to the freeBSD team.

Just reporting bugs not my thing; I also want to report a fix.

I've reinstalled the ghost BSD gfx distro; I have manually wiped the partitions before running The installation sequence again.
ghostBSD does something very nice when you have enough memory
It creates a Ram disk with the whole install sequence in there which makes it lightning fast

This time after the reboot I could get into the operating system contrary to the last time

I'm still hunting down why that occurs
Images maybe included later I'm now busy with the PPE for cycling

I've just included three photographic compositions of the installation process for ghostBSD 👻

This image already has alt-text

The image shows two screens displaying a game interface. The larger screen on the right is vertically oriented and shows a blue background with white geometric shapes, including a diamond shape in the center with a white silhouette of a landmass. There is a vertical white arrow pointing downwards, and a list of text on the left side. The smaller screen on the left is horizontally oriented and displays a similar blue background with white geometric shapes, including a diamond shape in the center with a white silhouette of a landmass. At the top of the screen, there is a row of white rectangles, possibly representing a timeline or progress bar. Both screens are set against a dark background, emphasizing the bright colors of the game interface.

...the image is a rare glimpse into the alternate universe where cats rule the world.

Now I am working on a test installation of freeBSD raw on disk . This installation will have all the bells 🔔 and whistles including the sources and ports

The image shows a large blue screen with a smaller white window in the center displaying text. The text in the window reads "Extracting distribution files..." and lists several files being extracted, such as "kernel.tgz," "initrd.img," and "linux-headers-5.10.0-11-generic." The window also shows a progress bar with the status "Done" in green. The screen is set against a black background, and there is a smaller blue screen in the bottom left corner with the word "Music" written on it. The overall color scheme is predominantly blue, with white and green text.

...the image is a snapshot from the annual meeting of the International Society of Invisible People.
