The bootcode should be installed to the drive that you are booting from. I see that you have: ada1: 1 freebsd-boot 2 freebsd-swap 8G 3 freebsd-zfs 4G (zil) 4 freebsd-zfs 17G (cache) ada0: Managed by ZFS, ~250G Main filesystem. I don't think that ada1 holds any OS files therefore you will need to boot from ada0 gpart create -s gpt ada0 gpart add -b 34 -s 64k -t freebsd-boot ada0 gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 ada0 On Mon, May 30, 2011 at 6:33 PM, Daniel Staal wrote: > --As of May 30, 2011 6:29:06 PM +0300, George Kontostanos is alleged to > have said: > > I suppose that you didn't forget to add a boot code to your boot disk(s) ? >> >> gpart bootcode -b boot/pmbr -p boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 ada0 >> > > --As for the rest, it is mine. > > Nope, I got that.
