The BIOS sees 4 drives.


It looks like the FreeBSD bootloader (?) is having trouble reading the 
drive(s) that contain the pool "zroot_jupiler" (is that supposed to be 
"zroot_jupiter"?), which contains the / (root) and /boot filesystems (?).


I would boot a 13.0-R installer USB stick into a live system, start a 
root shell, and try to determine if the disks, partitions, ZFS pools, 
etc., are okay.  If you run a 'zpool import ...',  consider using the 
"altroot=..." and "readonly=on" properties.
