I never suggested installing freebsd-zfs on a MBR/BSD slice, unless I 
made a typo. freebsd-zfs can only be installed on an entire disk, 
partitioned GPT.

The steps mentioned in my first message target moving an existing UFS to 
ZFS.

You have to recreate the s3 slice and its nested s3a partition during rsync.
