Hello,
Today I upgraded my small i386 server to FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE. My root is based on ZFS and is completely encrypted via geli. I boot from a USB key and enter the passphrase before root is mounted at boot time. This worked fine until the upgrade to 9.1. Now I can't seem to enter a passphrase, nothing is happening when I hit Enter. The system doesn't hang apparently as I may enter the scroll lock mode and scroll to my heart's delight
It's a USB keyboard and unplugging and replugging is of no use. The keyboard works fine in the boot menu. Disabling ACPI or enabling safe mode don't help :/
If I remember correctly a similar problem was present in 8.0 or 8.1 but got fixed since.
