Hello, I just bought a new Acer E11 111M C56A with 32GB eMMC disc. = Unfortunately FreeBSD completely ignores this disc during the = installation step to auto configure ZFS or UFS. The eMMC Disc does not show up at all. Some Details: - x64 Installer boots fine in Legacy mode from external USB DVD. - ZFS auto configure finds 0 disks - UFS auto configure stops with the following error: "Partitioning error = - An installation step has been aborted. Would you like to restart..." - Manual Disk Setup also stops directly with the same error as UFS auto = configure (partitioning error) I thought that I could maybe manually add a missing driver with a shell = or load a missing kernel module to be able to detect the device? User = wblock@forums.freebsd gave me a hint that this eMMC device is maybe not = supported by mmc(4).=20 On the other hand I learned from diverse websites that it's possible to = boot FreeBSD from eMMC devices for the BeagleBone. Also Linux = installation, I tried arch and mint so far, is not a problem. = Unfortunately my FreeBSD skills are limited... Any hints are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance, \\'.=
