I don't think it's the kernel, because two other kernels, one in the 11-stable vintage, do the same thing. I did make some changes to /boot/loader.conf and would like to try skipping it in a boot to single-user to see what happens. The changes didn't cause obvious/immediate problems, but I've no better ideas. Is there some way let the kernel boot -s without reference to loader.conf? Thanks for reading, bob prohaska
