This is what yould happen, summarized:

Hi
I've got 7.0-STABLE installed on an embedded Soekris 5501 box and I'm
trying to rebuild the boot loader to not use terminal emulation so I
can read the boot messages and menu, as per:

Ok, I'm a little slow 8o)
It had me confused because I hadn't configured any ZFS. I had forgetten about

Anyway, I added z

Can someone help me either solve the bootloader problem, or just how

If, instead of the pretty, numbered boot loader menu, you get the old
4.x style 'Hit [Enter] to boot immediately' autoboot prompt, hit any key
other than enter, then typ

I'm getting an error message "zpool_cache...failed!" during boot.
You have to disable beastie to see it...

Hey,
I recently upgraded from 6.3-PRERELEASE to 7.0-PRERELEASE. I had some
problem with the ports, but I got that taken care of.

multiuser mode into single user mode. I ran "shutdown now" as
