I just did new fresh installs using 80-STABLE/amd64 and 90-CURRENT/amd64 snapshots. unfortunately, no success. when tryied the 90-CURRENT I've created a slice to /boot (d) at the beginning of the partition (ad4s4) and grub returned error code 18 [1]. strange. even installing in another slice, at the beginning of the disk (ad4s1), the bootup process was slow too.
