There is another machine right next to it running 9.2-RC1 and it works fine with the mountpoint=/ setting and an empty fstab. And it worked fine on *this* machine on 9.1. It's not clear what changed to stop it from working after upgrading to 9.2-RC3. If time permits, we will update our PXE install environment to 9.2 and rebuild the whole thing. That would eliminate the upgrade step and hopefully give a result others could reproduce. > This only applies to Solaris, IIRC. [citation needed] Setting mountpoint=/ is necessary in order for "zpool import -o altroot=/mnt data" to do the right thing at maintenance time. Thanks!
