Hello, I have a supermicro server with motherboard H8DMR-i2 v2.0
(http://www.supermicro.com/aplus/motherboard/opteron2000/mcp55/h8dmr-i2.cfm)
The bios is at the latest level and I have 2 - 6core AMD CPUs.

I've been running FreeBSD 9.3 with ZFS on root. When upgrading to 10.0 using
freebsd-update -r 10.1-RELEASE. The upgrade completes but the system halts on
reboot:

Code:
BTX loader 1.00  BTX version is 1.02

BTX halted


After the POST, the "spinning cursor" appears for just a second or two before
it halts.


I did a fresh 10.1 install on a new disk (same server) and the same thing
happened. I also tried 10.2 beta
(FreeBSD-10.2-PRERELEASE-amd64-20150704-r285132-memstick.img) with the same
result.  

The system works fine on 9.3/zfs as well as 10.x/ufs. The problem only seems to
occur on 10.x. 

I booted using a 10.1 installer memstick and went to a shell. I can import the
ZFS "zroot" pool. I verified that the /boot/ directory contents of this pool
matched the install memstick /boot/ (except kernel symbols files are not on the
installer).

Can someone please advise on next steps to resolve? I have a number of these
systems and I would very much like to run 10.x.

It does boot and run OK using FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-20150625-r284814.

Thanks
Mike
