Looks like device.hints isn't being sourced in by the loader (aka
bhyveload in this case). This is done on a stock system from:
% grep device.hints /boot/defaults/loader.conf
loader_conf_files="/boot/device.hints /boot/loader.conf
/boot/loader.conf.local"
Any chance on your system that you've overridden loader_conf_files, or
are using a custom setup for loader config ?
later,
Peter.
