Toomas:

After activating the snapshot made for r346885, I got the same sort of
gptzfsboot errors that I had seen previously.  After my third attempt, I
was finally given the prompt for my Geli password and proceeded to the
boot menu.  I selected item #3 and went to the loader menu.  I selected
booting from kernel.old and got a successful startup.  I have rebooted
this laptop another dozen times this afternoon and had not had any more
gptzfsboot issues since the three observed when re-activating r346885.

It looks like the changes made by Ian Lepore did not solve my problem
with gptzfsboot.  I will probably start another thread about my issue
with the DRM update.

Thanks for the assistance.

Tom
