Hi guys, I have a 8.2-amd64 machine on which I blew up the boot blocks (isn't booting any more). It's s supermicro server btw and we have a ZFSonRooT setup there. The way I want to go about fixing it is booting into single user mode, mounting all the datasets, undoing the modification I did to the boot blocks, recompiling and installing the "old" version of the boot blocks for the system to boot. The problem is that after I boot a 8.2-DVD and then go to fixit mode, load the opensolaris and the zfs modules, I cannot list the ZFS pool name (I don;t know the ZFS pool name because I didn;t setup this machine) and without the name, I cannot import the pool to fix the boot blocks. So, my question is if there is a way to list the zpool in single user mode so that I know which pool I have to import or if there might be another way of fixing this problem. I already tried "zpool list" but it was no good. -- Best regards, Claudiu Vasadi
