loading required module 'kernel'
looks very fishy, as does can't find 'driver'
.kernel_load="YES"
driver_load="YES"
linux
, better add linux_enable="YES"
to /etc/rc.conf instead.Probably upgraded from a previous install. Which could explain if the wrong kernel was loaded.Slightly offtopic: why does it display the old ASCII logo?
In single user mode but unable to edit files. I have the "#" prompt.

I figured it out. Thanksmount /
You need to "force" text mode off or switch to a 1024x768 (or higher) resolution.Slightly offtopic: why does it display the old ASCII logo?
hw.vga.textmode="0"
# OR
efi_max_resolution="1024x768"
vbe_max_resolution="1024x768"
No need to remove it. You can enable it again after you completed the upgrade (both the OS and your ports/packages).Now X does not start I am sure because of the nvidia driver. Should the driver be removed altogether?
Also /boot/loader.conf still supports:Slightly offtopic: why does it display the old ASCII logo?
loader_logo="beastiebw"
loader_logo
. Not sure what the size constraints are but if you keep the size the same then it should work just fine. pkg upgrade -f
I followed section 24.2.3 of the handbook herepkg upgrade -f
The package installing libjpeg is graphics/jpeg-turbo, but running into such problems at all seems to indicate you didn't upgrade/reinstall all your packages, which you really should do after a major upgrade.

Have a look at your /boot/loader.conf. Does it contain stuff like this?
Just a guess, but would explain this unusual output. If so, remove it. You can also remove anything related toCode:kernel_load="YES" driver_load="YES"

kld_list="zfs nvidia-modeset ..."
exec="gop set 1"
to /boot/loader.conf to set the default efifb resolution to the best of the 2 offered. But the logo remains like the OP shows (the worst choice IMHO). Even adding lines like loader_image="..."
only serve to make the ASCII logo black&white instead of red. The word "kernel" is in jolly green, though -- telling me that the freakin' program actually KNOWS how to use colors and make things look decent.
