-can set variables early in startup from a file on the EFI partition.
-By default, that file is
-.Pa /efi/freebsd/loader.env .
-It can be changed by setting the FreeBSD EFI variable
-.Va LoaderEnv ,
-as in:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-echo -n /efi/freebsd/alt.env | efivar -w -t 7 \\
-    -n cfee69ad-a0de-47a9-93a8-f63106f8ae99-LoaderEnv

-After that is executed, the file
-.Pa /efi/freebsd/alt.env
-is used instead of
-.Pa /efi/freebsd/loader.env .
-See
-.Xr efivar 8
-for more information on setting EFI variables.
-.Pp
-The EFI variable
-.Va NextLoaderEnv
-can be set to the pathname of a second startup file.
-That variable is deleted immediately after its value is retrieved,
-so setting it will affect only the next boot attempt.
-For either variable, a missing file is silently ignored.
-.Pp
-Only simple variables can be set in the startup file.
+loads some extra variables early in startup from
+.Pa /efi/freebsd/loader.env
+from the EFI partition.
+Only simple variables can be set here.
 It can be useful to specify the root filesystem:
 .Bd -literal -offset indent
 rootdev=disk0s1a
 .Ed
-.Pp
-The startup file contains a series of assignments separated by spaces,
-tabs, or newlines.
-Quotes are not given any special treatment.
-If no
-.Li =value
-is given, the value
-.Li 1
-is used.
-Invalid syntax and the like are silently ignored.
