Hi,

I re-imaged my RPi 2 with [the stock image](https://download.FreeBSD.org/ftp/snapshots/arm/armv7/ISO-IMAGES/12.0/FreeBSD-12.0-CURRENT-arm-armv7-RPI2-20180226-r330034.img.xz), but it hangs on second boot on the loader.

First boot shows no problem at all. Loader finds the kernel, loads the dtb, and hands over to the kernel. Then kernel clears the screen and starts normal boot procedure.
The problem occurs on the second boot. I first shut the pi down using `shutdown -h now`, unplugged it, and then immediately re-plugged to the power.

This is what the screen reads:
```
Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any key for command prompt.
Booting [/boot/kernel/kernel]...
/boot/dtb/bcm2836-rpi-2-b.dtb size=0x34cd
Loaded DTB from file 'bcm2836-rpi-2-b.dtb'.
Kernel entry at 0x1200100...
Kernel args: (null)
```
At this point, it does nothing.

I have found that the very problem occurred [a month ago to bob](https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arm/2018-January/017310.html), but unlike their situation (self-built), this occurs on stock image.

Can anyone look into this problem? In the meantime, I will try few other previous images that is still in download.FreeBSD.org.

Thank you.
