This makes a lot of sense. For ZFS I always defaulted to ashift=12,
because I assume that even for older disks it probably doesn't hurt. As
I moved only quite recently to FreeBSD I did not no about this option
for GELI.
In my case the USB-SATA bridge is most likely doing weird stuff.
camcontrol identify /dev/da0 reports this (which is probably wrong):
> sector size logical 512, physical 512, offset 0
Now that I know the answer to this old problem of my initial journey to
FreeBSD on the Raspberry Pi, I can finally remove the old dmesg dump
from my disk. :)
Thanks,
Stefan
