First of all, thank pjd@, mm@ and others who made zfs go ahead in
FreeBSD! You are absolutely monsters!
Now one question, what I do wrong, that I can't use /boot/zfsboot to
boot MBR+zfs-only FreeBSD?
More info. If I use /boot/zfsboot form recent STABLE (from snapshot CD
or built myself) to boot up this
monstro# gpart show ad6
=> 63 625142385 ad6 MBR (298G)
63 104872257 1 ntfs [active] (50G)
104872320 520270128 2 freebsd (248G)
monstro# gpart show ad6s2
=> 0 520270128 ad6s2 BSD (248G)
0 516075824 1 freebsd-zfs (246G)
516075824 4194304 2 freebsd-swap (2.0G)
I install /boot/zfsboot as
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad6s2 count=1
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad6s2a skip=1 seek=1024
when I reboot, system stuck in "-" or "\" or "/" or finaly "|" prompt.
when I install /boot/zfsboot from recent 9-CURRENT snapshot CD all
boots-up perfectly.
More over, fresh built /boot/zfsboot from v28 pachset either from 8-S or
9-C patches stuck as I describe above.
What I miss? Can somebody send me known to work copy of /boot/zfsboot
from v28 patchset?
Thanks!
