It seems that the loader is not getting the correct "currdev" setting and  showing this error:

Ignoring boot0002: Device Path not found
Failed to find bootable partition


The system is then not responsive to keyboard

If I hit space immediately and type these command the system starts normally:
set currdev=disk0p3
load /boot/kernel/kernel
boot


Is there a way to det the "currdev" value for the loader? Possibly it is an EFI setting?

It turns ou that the UEFI boot manager was set to boot "UEFI OS" first
then UEFI on the first HD

Solution was to delete the "UEFI OS" entry form the the UEFI boot list; then the system booted normally.

To be sure I did a reboot and a power-off for the console menu. Reboot ewas normal in both cases
