For some reason /dev failed to mount. Normally, the kernel automatically mounts / read-only and /dev read-write. The former is upgraded to read-write by the rc scripts during multiuser boot. It could be a bug in 11.3. The menus are somewhat improved in stable/12 and head. Here are some screenshots from a VM I just booted, it runs head from February(!): https://ximalas.info/~trond/FreeBSD-head-BE-menu-2019-feb/ That dark blue colour is my only complaint. It can be a real pain to read on certain terminals/video adapters. -- Trond.
