Hi!

Sorry for the delayed answer. I've patched zfsboot and rebuilt the 
release. I now get an error message that ada2 can't be used, which is 
correct. Good stuff! :)

( I've recreated the test environment using a KVM guest with four SATA 
drives instead of the server I was using. I makes it easier to test stuff. )

Here's the screenshot:

Maybe one should be unable to select drives that are part of a graid in 
the first place? Or is that out-of-scope for bsdinstall at this point? 
(As I guess that requires too many changes/new lines)


Cheers
Johan
