Just another note: I haven't had my coffee yet, when writing my replay to you this morning. If the ZFS module is loaded by the loader the symlinking trick will not work. The module tries to load /boot/zfs/zpool.cache or expects zpool.cache preloaded from the loader. However, I could not teach the loader to load zpool.cache from the nanobsd configuration slice. If the module is loaded by /etc/rc.d/zfs, the symlinking works, because the module will try then try to load /boot/zfs/zpool.cache (which points to /etc/zfs/zpool.cache) wich was initialized by rc.initdiskless.
