Still haven't been able to find a solution to this. The boot, softraid,
installboot manpages (as far as I can tell) offer no answers.
Does anyone here understand how the kernel looks for available volumes
during the boot sequence?
Why would the kernel, when booted from a bootloader on one physical
disk, be able to find a root device -- but, when booted from a
bootloader on a different physical disk, not be able to do so? (even
when the bootloaders in both cases decrypted the correct disk)
