gentlemen,
morning.

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.
