--- Comment #2 from mgrooms@shrew.net ---
Hi Colin. Thanks for the response. I'm running a bunch of FreeBSD in AWS, so
thanks for all your hard work.

I left some of these new instances up for several minutes knowing that the
initial boot ( growfs ) can take some time to complete. After opening this =
bug
report, I left one up and running overnight and the boot completed at some
point. Here is the AMI used ...

ami-0059170a80e36d30f

When I look at the boot log, I see this in the output right after the conso=
le
messages ...

Jan 29 21:00:57 freebsd freebsd-update[870]: If unsupported, FreeBSD must be
upgraded by source.

I think this caused a 4.5 minute delay because I booted the AMI with a secu=
rity
group that didn't allow access to aws.update.FreeBSD.org. That doesn't seem
ideal :/

In any case, I'm pretty sure that solves the mystery. Sorry for the noise.
