April 30 2020 -CURRENT snapshot installer image.
I have a test machine which has encrypted-root-on-ZFS from a previous run of
the same installer; I intend to overwrite this partition. When the install USB
stick boots it prompts:
Consoles: EFI console
GELI Passphrase for disk1p3: _
Putting in the passphrase lets the installer proceed as usual. However, if I do
not enter the correct passphrase I get:

Failed to find bootable partition
If I don't know the existing passphrase I'm unable to reinstall.
