Re: printing boot probe messages

Anyhow, in the midst of all the screwing around, I now find that, on the
Ascii-graphics FreeBSD loader UI, if I choose Option #5 (verbose loading)
then the printing of the regular probe messages starts back up (this is NOT
the verbose probe messages, it's the printing of the regular probing
messages.) I have to admit, I don't clearly know the difference, in
setting the variables, between verbose loading the verbose probing. I know
the difference in what prints, but I don't know how to set this up
permanently without getting me that verbose probing, which I would like to
avoid.

I have absolutely no idea what "verbose loading" and "verbose probing"
mean. All I know of is the boot_verbose loader variable, which enables
additional kernel messages. It does not affect the way the kernel is
loaded, or the way devices are probed.
