Hello, I was in the process of upgrading from 6.2 to 7.0. After the installkernel, I rebooted into single, only to find the mountroot prompt:
| Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad2s1a | | Manual root filesystem specification: | <fstype>:<device> Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype> | eg. ufs:da0s1a | ?

I can `boot kernel.old' without any problems. I think this post [1] might be related. Unfortunately, the problem went away for the person who submitted the referenced PR.
