Neither <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/faq/#forgot-root-pw> nor <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/book/#boot-singleuser> mentions what's probably the most user-friendly approach to single user mode: * the menu – pictured at <https://byte-sized.de/linux-unix/freebsd-password-reset-fuer-root/>. At <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/book/#bsdinstall-view-probe>, one of these two must be a misnomer: > FreeBSD Boot Menu > FreeBSD Boot Loader Menu – be consistent.
Side note --------- <https://klarasystems.com/articles/the-freebsd-boot-process/> mentions > … the iconic “Beastie Menu”, … Modern systems default to the orb icon (part of the FreeBSD Project logo); not the BSD daemon a.k.a. beastie. <https://freebsdfoundation.org/about-us/about-the-foundation/project/> <https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/commit/c807217cf2ff03a8f31087ddadb68be1045b3815> <https://new.reddit.com/gallery/rk4ktm> <https://www.mckusick.com/beastie/index.html>

The title said "Boot Menu" but the caption of the image below reads "Boot Loader Menu". Add the "Loader" part to the title as well.
