1) dumpdev="xxx" should go into /etc/rc.conf, not /boot/loader.conf.
Putting in in /boot/loader.conf will change/do nothing.  You should
probably be using 'dumpdev="auto"' anyway (it then uses whatever you
define as swap in /etc/fstab).

2) If you meant to say /etc/rc.conf instead of /boot/loader.conf,
setting dumpdev shouldn't fix your problem.  I think it's a red herring.

3) You sent the above to me directly; please keep the mailing list CC'd,
as others need to know what you've tried/done.  Thanks.
