The script is used to perform the upgrade, so it would be too late for you
anyway (it would probably make things worse).

Have you tried the regular FreeBSD installation ISO?  That doesn't know about
ZFS by default, but you can enter Fixit mode with "Use the live filesystem
CDROM/DVD" and load the modules using

kldload /dist/boot/kernel/opensolaris.ko
kldload /dist/boot/kernel/zfs.ko
