--As of March 16, 2011 10:17:12 PM +0000, Matthew Seaman is alleged to have said: > I suggest you try out your update in a VM then, because I doubt anyone > will produce an answer definitive enough for you. --As for the rest, it is mine. In case anyone still cares, and if a VM running in Parallels on an OS X box is a good enough test for people... Matthew's answer tested out as being correct. The VM booted correctly after the binary update, but failed after upgrading the version of the zpool. Notably, `zpool upgrade -a` mentioned this in it's output, and gave the command to fix the problem. (Which would update the bootloader.) Daniel T.
