Too late I noticed the Open Issues in the Release Errata.
After the doing a straight freebsd-update(8) my ZFS volume won't mount. The errata indicates that this is what I should expect to see "while booting an unmodified GENERIC kernel." It also says that using the GENERIC kernel is "strongly discouraged."
My FreeBSD is set up as a headless server and I usually don't think about it until there's a problem. As a result I have very few troubleshooting/repair skills.
So if I shouldn't use the GENERIC kernel, what should I use and how (in general terms) would I go about installing it if I can't boot up? Or better yet under what title is it documented?
Thank you. (The family is nagging me to get their media server up!)
