Is there a way to make FreeBSD's boot loader read (or re-read) the config files (like /boot/loader.conf) after you have escaped from the menu to the boot loader prompt?
When I read the sources in /boot/lua it seems like there should be a "read-conf" command, but it doesn't exist when I try from the "OK" prompt.
The reason I need to escape to the boot loader prompt is to set a different boot device (set currdev=disk1p7) temporarily. But I also need to apply a tunable that can only be set after the vmm kernel module is loaded. Contents of /boot/loader.conf

Code:
root@kg-pod530:~ # more /boot/loader.conf
vmm_load="YES"
hw.vmm.amdvi.enable=1
pptdevs="1/0/0"
