I don't think my loader.conf file is getting used by the boot process.
The problem manifested when I could not start X. After poking around I discovered that the problem was because the nvidia driver was not loaded. So I checked the loader.conf file and nvidia_load="YES" is still there.
So I kldloaded nvidia and was able to start X. Then I realized I had no connectivity. So after a while of poking around, I discovered that the error messages related to the wpi0 adapter were because legal.intel_wpi.license_ack=1 was not getting recognized even though it is in the loader.conf file.
My system loads wpifw through the kernel.
Finally, autoboot_delay has no effect on my autoboot delay. It stays at 10 seconds no matter what I set autoboot_delay to...
I can't find any error specifically saying there was a problem processing loader.conf.
Anyone have any ideas why my loader.conf file seems to be disregarded?
