Hi, this is exactly the problem I expericed a few days ago. See my message http://www.mail-archive.com/support@pfsense.com/msg01022.html
It could be that the /boot/loader.rc is corrupted. Please have a look at it and, if appropriate, grep out the non-empty lines into a new loader.rc in order to make it boot again.

I did the 0.80.4 Upgrade and rebooted the box and I get: (bootloader loads fine, fives me the option of "F1 FreeBSD" and then duly loads): Can't work out which disk we are booting from. Guessed BIOS device 0xffffffff not found by probes, defaulting to disk0: can't load 'kernel' lsdev: disk devices: disk0: BIOS drive A: disk1: BIOS drive C: Hmm... booting from the Live CD (0.70.8) I am able to mount /dev/ad0s1a and everything looks fine in the filesystem. Kernel is there in /boot/kernel/kernel.gz and all that. So I don't know what happened. I am a Linux guy, so I don't enough to figure out what FreeBSD decided to magically not find my drive anymore. The Hardware must be okay, or else I wouldn't have been able to mount it from the Live CD. Any ideas?
