Hi it=E2=80=99s me again. Something that was committed in stable/10 =
after r271213 up to and including r271288 broke ZFS on Root booting in =
exactly the same way again. I know the problem is no longer related to =
extra kernel modules loaded in /boot/loader.conf because I=E2=80=99m =
loading only the required zfs.ko and opensolaris.ko modules. Also, the =
new vt(4) console that I=E2=80=99m using is not the culprit because the =
same thing happens with kern.vty set to =E2=80=9Csc=E2=80=9D.
