Hello, I have two partitions encrypted with GELI: ada0s2 and ada0s3. The loader (located at an unencrypted part of the harddisk) loads the kernel and the kernel asks me for the passphrase for ada0s2 to attach it afterwards. However - my root file system is not at ada0s2.elia but on ada0s3.elia. Since the kernel did no attach ada0s3 (but the ada0s2 partition) it is also unable to mount the root filesystem which is somewhat bad. So - is there a way (i.e. a loader.conf entry) how I can tell the loader which partition I wanna have attached with a passphrase? I tried to look at the code from the loader but did not find the source file where the attaching is done. Thank you, Martin
