Trying to boot FreeBSD 11.0 RELEASE in UEFI mode after installing the OS
with root on a 4K native 2-disk ZFS mirror and getting the error below:

>> FreeBSD EFI boot block
Loader path: /boot/loader.efi

  Initializing modules: ZFS UFS
  Probing 14 block devices...........*.+ done
    ZFS found the following pools zroot
    UFS found no partitions
ZFS: i/o error -  all block copies unavailable
ZFS: can't read MOS of pool zroot
ZFS: i/o error -  all block copies unavailable
ZFS: can't read MOS of pool zroot
Failed to load '/boot/loader.efi'
panic: No bootable partitions found!


The partition layout looks like this:

And the ZFS dataset:

zroot/var/tmp         96K  1.76T    96K  /mnt/var/tmp


The HDDs are 2 Tohsiba 4Kn spinning disks:

# camcontrol devlist
<AHCI SGPIO Enclosure 1.00 0001>   at scbus4 target 0 lun 0 (ses0,pass0)
<TOSHIBA MG04ACA200A FP2A>         at scbus7 target 0 lun 0 (ada0,pass1)
<TOSHIBA MG04ACA200A FP2A>         at scbus8 target 0 lun 0 (ada1,pass2)

<Virtual Floppy 1.00>              at scbus12 target 0 lun 1 (da0,pass5)


The same setup on a Virtualbox VM is working fine.

Any idea what the issue might be?

Thanks,
Claudiu
