If you installed into GPT partitions like this:

Try to make GPT in MBR as bootable (active) partition:
$ fdisk -s /dev/ada0

The simpler version is
  gpart set -a active ada0

There are multiple possible issues.  This one is due to strict 
compliance with the GPT standard.


Another problem is when a BIOS system does weird things based on an MBR
partition type.  Some Lenovo systems do that.  When that is the problem, 
using MBR partitioning rather than the PMBR from GPT can work.

Dears All ,

When

FreeBSD 9.1 amd64 Stable ( 2013-04-28 , r 250 009 , .iso ) ,
FreeBSD 9.2 amd64 Release ( .iso )

are installed with following steps , they are producing bootable and very
well working systems :

Install
Partitioning : Guided ,
Partition : Entire disk
Partition Editor : Finish
Confirmation : Commit
Final Configuration : Exit
Manual Configuration : No
Complete : Reboot


When the same steps applied to the following installs

on the SAME computer   and HDD  -

 :

FreeBSD 9.3 amd64 Release ( .iso ) ,

FreeBSD 10.0 amd64 Release ( .iso ) ,
-

FreeBSD 10.0 amd64 Stable ( 2014-06-30 , r 268 038 , .iso ) ,
FreeBSD 10.0 amd64 Stable ( 2014-07-12 , r 268 571 , .iso ) ,

FreeBSD 11.0 amd64 Current ( 2014-08-04 , r 269 497 , Disk 1 , iso ) ,

the installed systems are not bootable , and the last sentence on the
screen is the following :


No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key

.


I have applied the following steps to make the

FreeBSD 10.0 amd64 Release

installation bootable :


I have booted the computer by the Release DVD ,
from the Install Shell LiveCD , I have selected Shell , and
entered

gpart set -a active ada0
reboot

with respect to advise giving in

by Warren Block .


The installed system booted successfully from the HDD .





Thank you very much .
