When you say it "failed at ZFS", what do you mean? There will be multiple 'boot prompts' as well. The system starts up, and boot1/boot2 happen. This is where you'll get the first GELI password prompt. This will start the loader, which draws the beastie menu. After the menu, the kernel modules indicated in /boot/loader.conf are loaded, then the text 'booting' is displayed, and the screen is cleared, and the kernel starts loading. Later on you get the mount-root prompt if something goes wrong. Query: Do you happen to have VirtualBox or the nVidia driver kernel modules loaded? This was causing problems for some other people, where the system would boot up, but instantly panic once the VirtualBox networking driver was loaded, since the vbox driver module needs to be compiled against the 11.2 source code to work with an 11.2 kernel. If this doesn't seem to be the problem: Can you send the contents of /boot/loader.conf, /etc/rc.conf, 'zpool list' and 'zfs list' On 2018-06-03 11:28 PM, Warner Losh wrote: > I think this is on your side of the wall... > > Warner > > ---------- Forwarded message --------- > From: David Samms <dsamms@nw-ds.com <mailto:dsamms@nw-ds.com>> > Date: Sun, Jun 3, 2018, 7:08 PM > Subject: 11.2-Beta3 fails to boot: legacy mode ZFS > To: <freebsd-stable@freebsd.org <mailto:freebsd-stable@freebsd.org>> > > > Hello, > > Background: > ------------- > System was originally installed with an 11.0 CD.
