I'm not sure if this is a dracut issue or a zfs issue, but on my zfs 0.7.13 system I have: root=ZFS=fast/root ...where fast/root is the pool/dataset I'm using. You might try adding the ZFS= to your root string. I wasn't aware it would even work otherwise. I have yet to try 0.8 - I'm not in a huge rush though I'm sure the TRIM support will help. I'm content to let everybody else run into issues like this for me... :) -- Rich
