Are you running -current? (We would already know that if you had included a dmesg -- tsk tsk). In -current, boot is version "3.33", not "3.32". > I then booted the machine (by typing "boot sr0a:/bsd" in the boot console > again of course) and did "installboot -v sd1", and it gave: > > Using / as root > installing bootstrap on /dev/rsd0c > using first-stage /usr/mdec/biosboot, second-stage /usr/mdec/boot > sd1: softraid volume with 1 disk(s) > sd1: installing boot loader on softraid volume > /usr/mdec/boot is 6 blocks x 16384 bytes > copying /usr/mdec/BOOTIA32.EFI to > /tmp/installboot.1lt1hgtQYa/efi/BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI > copying /usr/mdec/BOOTIX64.EFI to > /tmp/installboot.1lt1hgtQYa/efi/BOOT/BOOTIX64.EFI > > Rebooting, that also did not help. That looks OK, though.

It looks like you're using GPT on both the physical and the softraid disk, correct? In my setup, I have GPT on the physical disk (sd0) but an MBR on the softraid volume. So perhaps try using an MBR on sd1 and see if that helps? I am poking in the dark here. No idea if that will work for you.
