Hi everyone, After shutting down to connect a new IP KVM switch (VGA and USB), my FreeNAS mini hardware is no longer booting FreeBSD with root in zfs (no encryption) - it is getting stuck after the kernel finishes loading and it tries to mount root and start_init. It just stops printing any more output to the screen, but I know the keyboard is working as ctrl+alt+delete works. I suspect this could be due to hard drives names being re-ordered (e.g. what was ada0 is now ada1). I have 2 SATA3 SSDs in a zfs mirror for root (showing as ada4 and ada5 during boot), and 4 SATA3 HDDs in a raidz2 with geli for further storage (showing as ada0-3, but these are only mounted during rc init - after the point the boot process is getting stuck). I have no USB storage, although the IP KVM may present a virtual disk for loading media remotely. I am running 12-CURRENT, but know the recent upgrade is not the issue because I can=E2=80=99t load from the previous boot environment either. Is anyone able to recommend a fix or a way to troubleshoot further? Please see below a link with screenshots at the end of the boot where it gets stuck. https://imgur.com/gallery/vhn7ScC Thanks in advance for any help!
