            Bug ID: 211835
           Summary: Boot environment selection from loader menu does not
                    work on 10.3
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.3-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: vas@mpeks.tomsk.su

If you create a BE with sysutils/beadm-devel and try to boot into this BE v=
ia
the loader menu (Option 7), the system will never boot fully.

There will be numerous errors like

ip6addrctl: fopen: /dev/stdin: No such file or directory
swapon: /dev/vtbd0p2: No such file or directory
ps: empty file: Invalid argument

and you will never see the login prompt. Your only option is to reboot.

Superficiously it looks like /dev is missing when booting into an alternati=
ve
BE.

My zfs filesystem layout is standard (created by bsdinstall in the "Auto ZF=
S"
mode).

I would be happy to provide any additional info required to debug the probl=
em.
