This is totally fantastic what jsing@ did, boot(8) can now ask
for passphrase for root disk laying on softraid crypto volume.
It works OK.

But I didn't know it works with passphrase beforeso I first
tried with keydisk... What a surprise, boot(8) could not use key
disk for crypto volume (still printing 'Passphrase:').

Is this my PEBKAC/a bug or this feature is still WIP?

If boot(8) can ask for passphrase now, can we look forward for
dual authentication (keydisk + passphrase) in the future?

Is OpenBSD first opensource OS which can boot from totally
encrypted crypto volume _by default_? I'm not aware of any other
OS which can do it. (Linuxes use ramdisk...).
