I made available an image copy (dd) of my 4 GiB partition
(compressed down to a 384 MiB file), holding one of my
partitions (a small bsd root) that can no longer be imported
into a 10.1-RC1 or 10.1-BETA3, as described in my first
posting (below):

   http://www.ijs.si/usr/mark/bsd/

I would appreciate if it can be confirmed that such pool
(one of several I have with this symptom) causes
'zpool import' to hang on 10.1 or 10-STABLE:

- download, xz -d sys1boot.img.xz
   # mdconfig -f sys1boot.img
   # zpool import sys1boot

... and advise on a solution.

Considering that 'zdb -e -cc' is happy and there were no
other prior trouble with these pools, except for an upgrade
to 10.1-BETA3/-RC1 from 10-STABLE as of cca. late September,
it is my belief that these pools are still healthy, just
non-importable. I'm reluctant to upgrade any other system
from 10.0 to 10.1 without finding out what went wrong here.
