Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->freebsd-fs Over to maintainer(s). Just a question - is there any particular reason why you are not using GPT partitioning? I'm using gpt on all my computers except the one which is hosted at OVH (http://www.ovh.com/). The standard procedure offered by OVH use MBR and install a slice of 6GB with FreeBSD 8.0. In case of problem I may ask (with the web interface) a net boot giving me a mfsBSD under FreeBSD 8.0. As I want to follow each release and use the latest ZFS, I keep the first slice under UFS and upgrade it to 8.x. The rest of the disk is a slice with ZFS. In normal use, this slice is used. In case of problem, I can switch to the first slice and make any repair on the second one because it contain a kernel able to import the ZPOOL. If the kernel is bad, I can netboot under 8.0, push any correction on the UFS slice, reboot from it and put the correction on the ZFS slice. I can repartition the disk with gpt but I would lost my data under ZFS. (Yes I have a backup but I prefer to keep all this running). On my netbook, I have a first slice with Windows7 preinstalled and the second one with ZFS. I have no CD allowing me to reinstall windows7. BTW thank you for your great work on ZFS. Henri Just another "Me too"
If I use /boot/zfsboot form recent STABLE (from snapshot CD
or built myself) to boot up this
monstro# gpart show ad6
=> 63 625142385 ad6 MBR (298G)
63 104872257 1 ntfs [active] (50G)
104872320 520270128 2 freebsd (248G)
monstro# gpart show ad6s2
=> 0 520270128 ad6s2 BSD (248G)
0 516075824 1 freebsd-zfs (246G)
516075824 4194304 2 freebsd-swap (2.0G)
I install /boot/zfsboot as
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad6s2 count=1
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad6s2a skip=1 seek=1024
when I reboot, system stuck in "-" or "\" or "/" or finaly "|" prompt.
when I install /boot/zfsboot from recent 9-CURRENT snapshot CD all
boots-up perfectly.
More over, fresh built /boot/zfsboot from v28 pachset either from 8-S or
9-C patches stuck as I describe above.
I do not use GPT because of windows on the same machine.

When trying to boot from second slice with zfsboot from 8.2-RC1, the boot freeze with "-" in the upper left corner of the screen. Disk configuration: arapahoe# gpart show => 63 25165728 ad0 MBR (12G) 63 12582801 1 freebsd (6.0G) 12582864 12582927 2 freebsd [active] (6.0G) => 0 12582801 ad0s1 BSD (6.0G) 0 10485760 1 freebsd-ufs (5.0G) 10485760 2097041 2 freebsd-swap (1.0G) => 0 12582927 ad0s2 BSD (6.0G) 0 12582927 1 freebsd-zfs (6.0G) I put zfsboot with the `classical method' booting with FreeBSD-8.2-RC1-amd64-livefs.iso: dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad0s2a count=1 dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad0s2a skip=1 seek=1024 I grab an old zfsboot (v15 aware) from a 8.1-STABLE r213582 (thank you snapshot) and this one work perfectly. All this have been tested under virtualbox-ose-3.2.10_2 *and* a 'real server'. Fix: zfsboot from 8.1-STABLE r213582 work fine.
