(In reply to ivy from comment #5)

MINIMAL is (deliberately, though I disagree) missing UFS.  If you add that back
then MINIMAL should be able to boot and find its filesystems on most hardware
that GENERIC also supports.  Otherwise you'll have to modify the installer to
add `ufs_load=yes` to loader.conf in the UFS+MINIMAL case, or modify the loader
to automatically preload ufs.ko if the kernel doesn't already contain it and
vfs.root.mountfrom is UFS.  The latter option would actually be pretty neat,
but I don't think the loader currently has any way of inspecting the kernel
binary.
