--- Comment #19 from Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org> ---
There needs to be a 'zpool wait' or there needs to be something that tries
again when devices arrive in the background dependng on how critical the ne=
ed
for the zpool is. devd could be useful here, imho. devd is also useful for
mounting /usr or some other crit fs when the device arrives, and we could p=
ut
waits in rc for them if necessary. That may need some more thought.

IMHO, the whole root hold thing is shite and should be flushed. It should be
replaced by a loop similar to what we have today: try to mount /, sleep unt=
il
the next device arrives and try again. timeout to a prompt after N seconds =
(or
in an ideal world, when kbkit is true :).
