You can use zfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:data/root" in /boot/loader.conf

That has been in loader.conf the whole time.

Mountpoint=legacy is required either way.

It isn't.  There is another machine right next to it running 9.2-RC1
and it works fine with the mountpoint=/ setting and an empty fstab.


I installed 9.0 onto my machine booting from zfs about a year and a half
ago and remember having issues getting it bootable. As I recall
mounpoint=legacy and mountpoint=/ effectively point to two different
filesystems.

Changing the mounpoint after installing hides the / filesystem.

So it isn't so much which mountpoint to use but which mountpoint *was*
used when you installed the system.
