I made the mistake of installing CURRENT on my file server at home this morn= ing and thought I could just boot the old kernel, do a zfs rollback, then co= ntinue on my merry way. Turns out I was horribly wrong. In addition to colors added to the boot loader (ooooh shiny!!!), it appears t= he loading kernels with the load sub command from zfs pools does not work (l= oad kernel.old, boot -s kernel.old, etc). Period. It works just fine with my= stable/9 kernel/userland, but not the CURRENT one. Please fix this; I hate having to resort to grabbing install media to have t= o fix my machines, and I'm sure you're going to have other devs and users ju= mp down your throat about this. Thanks..=
