Friends, I am using sysinstall from 12.0-RELEASE to create a ZFS root to boot from. I have chosen to create a mirror, used the default GPT partition type, and enabled GELI encryption. I set a passphrase for GELI. sysinstall completed normally. Upon booting, I see: GELI Passphrase for disk0p3: (entered via keyboard) Calculating GELI Decryption Key for disk0p3: xxx iterations... Calculating GELI Decryption Key for disk1p3: yyy iterations... Failed to read pad2 area of primary vdev Can't find /boot/loader ... I have repeated this install *without* any GELI encryption and the system boots and operates as expected. What am I seeing here ? Thanks.
