Summary

When boot_mute is set to yes in loader.conf, any root mount failure messages are not shown. I noticed this on one of my system where zfs failed to export zroot, but since boot_mute was set to TRUE, the system just hanged without showing the messages from vfs_mountroot

I believe the console should be unmuted in other cases as well (panic during boot for example).
