Given that I upgraded the zpool of a server that boots of a legacy boot part=
ition, how would the red alert box saying

   "Updating UEFI ESP partitions (the partition the firmware boots from) has=
 changed. See Boot Loader Changes for important details."

have caught my attention? No UEFI involved at my end, no zpools involved in t=
he warning (I noticed the absence of the warning after running "zpool upgrad=
e", so no harm done, but other users might be less fortunate).
