      UPDATE:
      I just upgraded to 2.7.0.a.20221017.0600 this morning, and did not have to apply the workaround. The ZFS driver was correctly re-inserted into loader.conf during the upgrade.

              Hmm, so it's showing that whilst booting the installer?

              That would be the USB (da0). Do you see any other drives listed in the boot logs above that?

                  Ok but that is whilst booting the installer from USB or after installing?

                  What sort of drive is in that system you are trying to install to?

                    I had a virtualbox install of pfSense 2.5.1 installed on ZFS that I tried to upgrade this morning to the latest Development 2.7.0 snapshot. Unfortunately on rebooting for the upgrade I hit this same error.

                      Hmm, that looks like it's only seeing the drive sometime after it tries to mount root for some reason.

                        Looks like it isn't loading the ZFS kernel module since it says ZFS is an unknown filesystem.

                        Might be one you need to break out at a loader prompt and load the module manually, and then add it to loader.conf.local once you boot.
