I have faced some problems that looks exactly like you say. I haven't investigated thoroughly after some quick-hack-repairs machine runs flawlessly. 1. I have moved to RELENG_8 from RELENG_8_0. I don't think this is it but zfsloader support was what I was looking for. 2. I reinitialised zfs partitions again with a boot code. But this time I used bs=512 dd option. 3. I recreated zpool.cache and replaced it on my pool. Actually I don't know which one helped me, but my bet is for the third step and maybe for second. -- Sphinx of black quartz judge my vow. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
