Kyle: a btrfs module (in rc.conf or otherwise) should not be necessary.

In my experience, life is much easier with /boot on an ext partition
(I tend to stick with ext2, but that's just because I don't have much
confidence in boot loaders).

Also, usind syslinux rather than grub is usually much simpler
(assuming you don't require some feature that is only required by
grub.

PS
If you have more debug output, you could put picturesup somewhere, and
I'm sure we could do a better job at interpreting it than Google (I
didn't even know Google could do that to be honest).
