 I have a new lead. Watch this: under Linux

# fdisk /dev/sda
...
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1               1          17      136521   83  Linux
/dev/sda2              18        3933    31455270   a5  FreeBSD
/dev/sda3   *        3934        7849    31455270   bf  Solaris
/dev/sda4            7850       19457    93241260    5  Extended
...
# df -T /dev/sda3
Filesystem    Type   1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3     ext3    30961696   5752620  23636316  20% /media/disk-1
# 

 So, the Solaris partition is automounted under Gnome, and Gnome views it
 as ext3. When the partition is unmounted normally, it will be marked clean,
 which overwrites some ZFS data. Does that sound resonable?
