> The phrase "no active use" bothers me. What does that mean? Are there any ZFS pools or any disks that any whiff of ZFSish thing on it at all? Clearly, there's something in the zfs boot loader that's freaking out by something on your system, but absent that information I can't help you.
No ZFS pools: Strictly UFS for FreeBSD file systems
for the last few years, UFS before I had access to
the 1950X system.
I've never before bothered to use WITHOUT_ZFS= in
my builds. So the system had the ZFS support,
such as kernel modules, over all the time that
this system had been in use.
Prior to the recent versions I saw no such problems.
But the default loader was not ZFS capable.
As seen in the under-Hyper-V use-context:
# gpart show -p
=> 40 937703008 da0 GPT (447G)
40 1024 da0p1 freebsd-boot (512K)
1064 746586112 da0p2 freebsd-ufs (356G)
746587176 31457280 da0p3 freebsd-swap (15G)
778044456 159383552 da0p4 freebsd-swap (76G)
937428008 275040 - free - (134M)
=> 40 937703008 da1 GPT (447G)
40 1024 da1p1 freebsd-boot (512K)
1064 369098752 da1p2 freebsd-ufs (176G)
369099816 406846424 da1p3 freebsd-swap (194G)

1064 2000408159 da3p2 freebsd-ufs (954G)
2000409223 1 - free - (512B)
So no ZFS pools.
The above context never had the ZFS-capable loader
problem but did have the kernel problem. I was
booting the 356G freebsd-ufs partition: the only
one that I have updated the FreeBSD version on
so far.
FreeBSD booted natively more drives are seen in
gpart show, some not from/for FreeBSD. But the
above drives are present and I was booting from
the same partition of the same drive: the 356G
freebsd-ufs partition. Still no ZFS pools
anywhere:

The 356G freebsd-ufs partition is the only one
of the freebsd-ufs partitions updated so far.
This is the context that had the problem with
the ZFS-capable loaders --but no later kernel
problem when a not-ZFS-capable loader was used
(via copying over an older one --until I did the
WITHOUT_ZFS= build/install).
As for the ZFS-capable loader: May it has
problems when it sees one or more of:
ms-reserved (on GPT)
ms-basic-data (on GPT) (NTFS file system)
ms-recovery (on GPT)
efi (on GPT)
linux-data (on MBR)
linux-lvm (on MBR)
fat32lba (on MBR)
(given that none of these is available in
the Hyper-V context as the virtual machine
has been configured).
