This sounds messy, not sure if it has any informative value. I think I've seen something like this after some reason ZFS import from upsteam when my kernel and userland were out of sync. Do you do a full boot from the livecd? Or do you boot your kernel but then mount userland from the cd? In any case, not sure if this is relevan to your main trouble. > While I was mucking around with the pool trying to get the system to > boot I set the cachefile attribute to /boot/zfs/zpool.cache before > upgrading.

Multi-pool configurations has been tested before the commit. -- Andriy Gapon
