--- Comment #3 from Bertrand Petit <bsdpr at phoe.frmug.org> ---
(In reply to cyril from comment #2)
Thank you Cyril for your comment, setting kernels_autodetect to YES in
loader.conf has no positive effect. I think the trouble is elsewhere as the
device from which is loader is loaded is not visible from the loader prompt.
Please compare the list of devices shown in the first message to the one bellow
which I obtained from an 11.3-RELEASE memstick.

OK lsdev

    zfs:cask

Here we have four devices which is correct, the memstick is disk0. With a
12.1-RELEASE memstick only three devices are listed and none of them is the
memstick. There looks to be a regression in devices detection.
