Reduce 10 sec delay of loader?

Hi! I'm trying to avoid the 10 sec wait on boot time:

/boot/kernel/kernel data=0x4b3fc8+0x2c038 syms=[0x4+0x78c40+0x4+0x4b17f]
Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt.
Booting [/boot/kernel/kernel] in 9 seconds ...
...

I created the file /boot/loader.conf (since there wasn't one on my
system) to override the loader_delay and autoboot_delay variables
defined in /boot/defaults/loader.conf :

# cat /boot/loader.conf
loader_delay="1"
autoboot_delay="1"

But loader still waits 10 seconds before booting.

I read the loader.conf(5) and loader(8) manuals, but I can't see what
I'm doing wrong. Can you point me some directions?

I'm running 10.1-RELEASE FreeBSD on the ZedBoard.

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Matias.-
