A closer look revealed this:

da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <USB TO I DE/SATA Device 0016> Fixed Direct Access SPC-2 SCSI device
da0: Serial Number 000000000033
da0: 40.000MB/s transfers
da0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present
da0: quirks=0x2<NO_6_BYTE>

So maybe the SD card was just slow.

And indeed, with:

> ufs:/dev/ufsid/582fa82db6b4890b

I get to a login prompt.

I tried this in /boot/loader.conf:

kern.cam.boot_delay="10000"
kern.cam.scsi_delay="3000"

... but that didn't help.

Now, I see this:

# dmesg | fgrep net

awg0: <Allwinner Gigabit Ethernet> mem 0x1c30000-0x1c300ff on simplebus0

... but no Ethernet interface here:

# ifconfig -a

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
        options=600003<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 
        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
        groups: lo 
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

Any ideas on that one?

(BTW, thanks for your patience - very helpful!)
