Description
During the installation, it allow user to configure the partitions. but it is not able to handle it properly when there is a partition with label "/boot".
Below is the steps I met the issue.
1. I configured below partitions
/boot 512M
/ 6680M
swap *
2. During the bootup. I saw below message
0:ad(0,a)/kernel
No /Kenrel
3. I can locate the loader in ad(0,d)/loader
4. And it will not correctly mount the ad0s1a as root file system
and below are the info i found on the server.

- Status changed from In Progress to Resolved
The installer by default prepares the disk with a "/boot" partition, so this issue should have been resolved (at least with recent several releases).
