      @stephenw10 Hello. Updating 2.8.1 same problem. I tryed the workaround, but if I create the file /boot/loader.conf.local and put the string at reboot same problem. For me only works if I set it manually.

        What exactly are you seeing? And what exactly are you adding?

        If it works manually at the loader prompt it will be possible to add it to the loader file.

          @stephenw10 It wont work if later I add it into the loader file. I create /boot/loader.conf.local and added hint.iwm.0.disabled="1" but if I reboot same problem it stops and I have to boot manually.

            Hmm, well that should do exactly the same thing. Can we see some screenshots or console output?

                Your loader file has quotation marks (") preceding the 1 but double ticks after it ('') . They should both be quotation marks.

                    @darkeyesz I'm curious about how that would even happen in the first place. Like you typed the start ", then 1, then decided to spice things up by doing the end " differently? You forgot what character you typed literally 2 characters earlier? How??

                      I'd guess it was copy/paste the line but accidentally miss the last character. Then add it as ticks by mistake. It's easy to overlook.

                        I suppose. My next guess was going to be 'cat on the keyboard' 😁
