Howdy,
I thought it was just me that had the problem, but it appears to be the
recent dirpref commit. I managed to get a working system by booting to
single user, fsck'ing all partitions, then using tunefs to specify the
number of files per directory to be greater than zero. I also specified
the -A flag to update all superblock entries, as subsequent fsck's errored
with first superblock different to first alternate.
In summary:
fsck all partitions
tunefs -A -s <n> all partitions, where n > 0
Hope this helps.
