Bruno:
So does it mount OK after you manually enter the root?
I'm having a problem very frequently where it picks up the
zfs_load="YES"
vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:tank/root"
OK in the loader, but hangs when booting at:
------
.
.
.
WARNING: ZFS is considered to be an experimental feature in FreeBSD
ZFS filesystem version 6
ZFS storage pool version 6
Trying to mount root from zfs:tank/root
------
and then it just sits there. But on other occasions, it gets past that
and boots fine. This is without recompiling or anything - so I'm not
sure what's changing (LOR?)
Anyhow, not sure if that's the same what you're seeing, but I thought
I'd mention it.
