I have got installed Debian 9 Stretch and FreeBSD with UFS boot
partition and root filesystem on ZFS. I use GPT scheme of partitioning
on a legacy BIOS. Here's content of /etc/grub.d/40_custom:
menuentry "FreeBSD" {
    insmod bsd
    insmod ufs2
    set root='(hd0,gpt5)'
    chainloader +1
}
When I'm trying to boot FreeBSD through GRUB I receive `error: attempt
to read or write outside of disk 'hd0'`.
My partition layout is:
  * ada0 - primary 3 TB hard drive with GPT partition scheme
  * ada0p1 - BIOS boot
  * ada0p2 - linux filesystem, mountpoint: /boot
  * ada0p3 - linux filesystem LVM on LUKS
  * ada0p4 - FreeBSD boot, gptboot
  * ada0p5 - FreeBSD UFS, mountpoint: /boot, required by geli to boot
    FreeBSD
  * ada0p6 - FreeBSD swap
  * ada0p7 - FreeBSD ZFS on geli
My actual config
menuentry "FreeBSD" {
    insmod bsd
    insmod ufs2
    insmod part_gpt
    set root='(hd0,gpt4)'
    kfreebsd /boot/loader
}
doesn't work.
It returns an error: unknown filesystem.
Can anyone help me?
