Replying to myself: I builded and tested a FreeSBIE based on HEAD as of
today and it worked without any issue.[1]
Did you check out the CVS version (http://www.freesbie.org/cvs.html) ?
Did you use the kernel configuration file included in FreeSBIE
(conf/i386/FREESBIE) ?
Best Regards
[1] Without unionfs enabled, which is the default for FreeSBIE. I'll
work on it.
