If you put zfs_load=3D"YES" into loader.conf, the module will be loaded by = the loader. If, however, the /boot/zfs/zpool.cache is not up-to-date or not even written (in case of a ro-mount of / in nanobsd) the filesystems will not be mounted automatically; they have to be imported manually as decribed by another post in this thread. I worked around that by symlinking /boot/zfs -> /etc/zfs; therefore zpool.cache will be saved on the /etc mfs filesystem. On shutdown, I save zpool.cache to nanobas's configuration slice. The file will then be automat= ically copied to /etc/zfs by rc.diskless and the filesystems will be mounted on boot-time.
