From one side MBR has the PMBR partition, that needed for GPT, but PMBR isn't correct in your case. Actually your configuration is similar to what called Bootcamp, but it isn't correct bootcamp :) I modified the code to be less strict for you case. Can you try this loader? http://people.freebsd.org/~ae/loader -- WBR, Andrey V. Elsukov
