Weirdly when I set that it hangs and drops into the mountroot> shell again, while leaving it unset lets me boot into the installer.

It hangs for about a minute at line 164 after echoing the CPU list, then fails with error 19.

I actually had no problems getting Debian multistrapped, flashed to the eMMC, and booted. Granted FreeBSD and GNU/Linux are wildly different beasts, but I was still surprised.
