Yes I know. Perhaps you should have a look at the beginning of this
thread where I described my problem.

Although powerd is running, after every shutdown all partitions need to
be checked.

When I run "dkctl wd0 setcache -r" before shutting down, this checking
is not necessary.

I have this entry in my rc.conf. But I don't know if powerd is really
running athe moment.
I waited for about 30-40 minutes after startup before I pressed the
power button, that should be enough time for the system to come up an
check all partitions, shouldn't it? As I already said, there is no
possibility for me to log in, neither via ssh nor via serial console. So
might be that powerd is not running at the moment.
