I've been down this road recently with 9.1-release.  I ended up adding =
these lines to end of my script


## The next two are "hacks" in my book, without the last line, on reboot
## it gets stuck trying to find zfs:zroot/ROOT, but somehow the -f or =
reboot "fixes"
# this quirk
zpool export zroot
zpool import -f zroot
reboot

Without the altroot it replaces the live CD mounts, and basically =
renders the system pointless, except that it works on reboot.  :)   I =
tried all sorts of other ways to make it work, mounting zroot and =
specifying a cache file, then cp the file over, etc., nothing I did =
worked except the above.  There is probably a cleaner/better way but I =
was not able to find it.
