I wanted to do a proof-of-concept, so I ran 'beadm create ', then ran 'beadm activate '. I then installed something from ports (in this case, zfs-stats). I reactivated the default instance in beadm and rebooted. BUt I am still seeing zfs-stats installed. In my understanding of beadm, shouldn't the machine be in the state it was prior to the zfs-stats install? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- shot through the heart ooh baby do you know what that's worth and you're to blame ooh heaven is a place on earth darling you give love they say in heaven love comes first a bad name we'll make heaven a place on earth ORBITAL "Halcyon Live"
