Re: port-amd64/52493 (NetBSD boot freezes on xhci_init on Mac Mini (MGEN2AE/A))

[Andrius V <vezhlys%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hello,

I am receiving notifications about providing the feedback still. Is it still something expected from me regarding this bug? In general, I believe that bug can be closed even if BIOS boot still fails. Since setup image is combined now, the issue should be much less relevant for new installations, since efi boot will be chosen by the Mac itself.

Regards,

Andrius V

 It's hard to tell but likely yes. BIOS boot still freezes on the latest
 kernel, but l am not sure if it's still for the same reason which was
 related to xhci on BIOS boot only. I would need more time to investigate
 and confirm. On another hand, unified installation image defaults to UEFI
 boot currently, which boots properly. Thus, I am not sure if it's very
 important bug to fix.
