FreeBSD 11R on macbook pro.
does not see dvd, yet the system was installed via
FreeBSD-11.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso

uptime 1s

I can see the files in the rescue directory, but can not move to that
directory or issue commands like rescue/vi -v boot/loader.conf

ANY HINTS on possible keyboard combinations to force boot from dvd?
Holding "C" on boot is not getting the result i expected.
