spl is now part of the zfs package, so you will still have it after updating. During the update, the module will still be in memory. If you reboot during the update, you will have a problem, I kept a backup copy of the spl modules just in case, or you could quickpkg spl. -- Neil Bothwick The law of Probability Dispersal decrees that whatever it is that hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.
