CPU? dmesg? The 11-RELEASE did that boot from the same disk? In the mentioned issue there is the case that gptzfsboot does recognize a secondary disk (can be configured as mirror), but not the first. As you say UFS works, the bug might be in the gptzfsboot code, because that is not used for UFS. Regards, Ronald.
