--- Comment #1 from fred@boyce.za.net ---
Some additional notes:

a. If I remove the 'password=3D"test"' from loader.conf, everything works a=
gain.
So it does seem to be that when we go through the
sys/boot/forth/check-password.4th code path that the environment for autobo=
ot
is subtly different.

b. Regarding problem 2, I also noticed that the /boot directory and loader.=
conf
are world-readable by default, which leaks the boot password in plain text =
to
any user on the system. Should I raise a separate issue for that?
