I recently ran my FreeBSD installation in a virtual machine, and when I booted on real hardware I'd forgotten to update /etc/fstab. I saw the rootmount prompt and tried to clear away the USB probe messages by pressing enter. It appears there's a problem with the mountroot code though because instead of another line, I got a panic: "failed to (re-)mount root". Should the mountroot parser be failing if it doesn't find a valid root to mount on the first line? -- Bruce Cran
