Unfortunately CURRENT does not boot and cash in a weird way. Both 11-RELEASE and 12 CURRENT boot loader seems to attempt to read blocks that exceeds the physical disk. Initially I through it was a hard disk error - but after a "oh" experience I realised that the "gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 921592" is actually beyond the physical boundaries of the disk (300GB disk). In order to rule out different options - I installed a vanilla 11-RELEASE on the 300G with a simple stripe - it also gives the error but does boot - the LBA of the error is slightly different on 11 CURRENT and comes up with LBA 921600 I have scanned all the disks for physical faults and there seems to be none and I have tried doing a single disk installation on each disk - they give the same error - Does anybody have any idea? Included Photos as sometimes it get through to the actual boot menu but then crash in another place I have some images - but they are 2 bit for the mailing list ;-)
