I've just finished upgrading from 10.0 to 10.1, and while the upgrade has otherwise gone smoothly, the loader now fails while autobooting. Curiously, issuing the boot command manually has no issues. Here's the text from a photo I took of the screen shortly:
The "can't load 'kernel'" error comes up straight away, without pausing at the menu first.
/boot/loader.conf contains the following (with the password masked):
Looking through the source, specifically in sys/boot/common/boot.c, it is able to find the kernel, but for some reason I can't work out, mod_loadkld fails on the first autobooted try, but succeeds on the second attempt.
Anyone have any ideas on what I should try next to sort this out?
Code:
