I'm hoping to get some guidance on the best way to create a fresh FreeBSD install using my existing drives partitioned with ZFS. The old set up is with two drives of different sizes. The smaller one is mirrored with a partition of equal size on the larger drive to create one pool which is the root and boot partition. A second pool is made of the remaining space on the larger drive mounted at /tank/ I booted the USB image of FreeBSD 10 and I couldn't see an obvious way to use my old partitions as the base for the new system. Any advice that could be offered would be really appreciated! Thank you in advance.
