Beats me... I can't even remember what userconfig_script is
supposed to do. Note that support for 5.2.1 ended on July 31, 2004.
Neither can I, but last weekend I upgraded some 4.x boxes to 5.x and
then 6.x, and with the 5.x loader they croaked before booting until I
took those userconfig_script_load lines out.
Ooh, now I remember; userconfig was the old hardware configuration
mechanism we had before device.hints. If you typed -c at the boot1
prompt, you would get an interactive display where you could assign IRQs
and ports to devices.
The script is basically a sequence of userconfig commands; you could
extract it from kenv after an interactive boot and store it in a file
which the loader would read the next time around.
AFAIR, userconfig was axed between FreeBSD 3 and 4, so there would be no
point in loading a userconfig script for a 5.x kernel.

Thanks for the tip. I did remove the line, however my issue did not go
away. I am still getting dropped to the manual mount root prompt in the
middle of the boot sequence.
