If it is of any use to anyone, I have a Haswell Gigabyte board that
locks up if I use OpenBSD to set up the drive with GPT. It just shows a
black screen and won't even show the vendor logo, much less let me into
the BIOS or OS.
This happens with both an on-board mSATA and with a standard SATA HDD or
SSD. As soon as I unplug the drive, everything is fine, and I have to
recreate the partition table in another system.
I always figured it was a problem with the MB firmware, so I never filed
a bug.
