--- Comment #2 from Jean-Sébastien Pédron <dumbbell at FreeBSD.org> ---
I confirm this is a known issue with vt(4): it uses a callout to refresh the
screen, but for reasons unknown to me, the callout is not called anymore on
mountroot prompt. I tried to debug this but failed. Since then, I didn't have
time to work on this again.
So maybe callouts are disabled in this situation. If there is a way to detect
that, then vt(4) can go back to a "synchronous mode" where it refreshes the
screen after each typed character, like it does when ddb is active.
