This sounds great so I thought I'd try it. Unfortunately, it didn't work on my degraded pool [ZFS managed to kill a disk and I thought I'd experiment]. When I tried to boot, I got: ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable ZFS: can't read MOS ZFS: unexpected object set type lld FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: tank:/boot/loader boot: The boot loader is up-to-date and was built with 'LOADER_ZFS_SUPPORT'.
