FWIW, The code review comments state: BTW: as mentioned in very beginning of this project, I'm reserving fairly large chunk of memory (64MB) for loader and using same amount for both BIOS/UEFI variants, default in freebsd is 3MB, eventually this should be reviewed, but currently it will affect very small setups. I still think it's pretty cool, thanks to everyone involved. Cheers, Pedro.
