Thanks! This worked -- kind of. The actual stuff I had to type was:
/boot/loader -h

...and that let me continue the boot/install process. Subsequent boots
(after the installation was complete, and by executing shutdown -r) had
no problem and I didn't have to modify any config files.

Again, thanks for the help!
