My first attempt to create a boot environment failed as shown at
<https://pastebin.com/R0kw0jnp>. From the head of the paste:
# date ; uname -v

FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT r339737 GENERIC-NODEBUG
# bectl create -r 13.0-CURRENT
/ and /boot not on same device, quitting
#
Documentation: man bectl
========================
The man page should cover, or at least mention, cases such as this.
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bectl&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+12-current>
Documentation: migration
========================
A Google search for the quit response led me to
<https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2018-August/070984.html>
and:
> … for GELI support, FreeBSD 12.0 will not require two separate pools anymore,
