Actually you can't create /boot partition, but something else like /b
and link /boot to /b/boot
bootloader subsystem requires that things are in /boot subdirectory on
bootpartition.
make /boot partition a, encrypted partition as d and add in
loader.conf
vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:da0d.eli"
if you do this and not forget to add -b in geli init everything will just
work.
