Kind of sucks, I know :-( > You can use raidz1 as your root pool. I'm running it right now on my 9.0 system. Drew: My first suggestion is to confirm that you added the proper options in /boot/loader.conf. Mine looks like this: vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:zroot" zfs_load="YES" In addition, zfs_enable="YES" in your /etc/rc.conf to automount the other zfs filesystems, such as /usr, /var, or whichever ones you setup. Did you set the proper mountpoints on your zfs filesystems before rebooting? As in, `zfs set mountpoint=legacy zroot` and `zfs set mountpoint=/usr zroot/usr` and so on, for each for your file systems.
