As I'm fairly interrested in this kind of setup, I set up a virtual
machine (VirtualBox) with 3 HD.
Sources are from a fresh current (csup yesterday). Applied your patch
successfully.
Done a make installworld / installkernel to the zfs root.
Applied the bootcode as Stephan.
The seem's the loader gets loaded, but it cant proceed further.
I got those kind of errors :
ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable
ZFS: can't read MOS object directory
Can't find root filesystem - giving up
Then I get to the loader prompt.
ls give same errors.
show lists (partial) :
currdev=zfs0
loaddev=disk1a
lsdev lists :
cd devices:
disk devices :
disk0: BIOS drive A:
disk1: BIOS drive C:
disk1p1: FreeBSD boot
disk1p2: FreeBSD swap
disk1p3: FreeBSD ZFS
pxe devices:
zfs devices:
zfs0: ztboot
ztboot is the name of my pool. but other physical disks aren't shown...
Seem's the loader can't read the ZFS raidz pool.
The loader as been built with LOADER_ZFS_SUPPORT option on /etc/make.conf
Anything I could get wrong ?
