I'm unclear about some of your answers.. interfoliating my questions.

But, can I interpret your answer to overall be that one should not have
to do more than:

set BIOS to AHCI mode for the SATA controllers
boot liveDVD
as superuser (sudo su in a live dvd terminal)
     "zpool import -f rpool"
     "zpool export rpool"
reboot

for any reasonably recent Intel based server motherboard (mine is a
Supermicro X7SBi)?


Yes, I guess so. I reviewed a number of threads I took part in on the
ZFS mailing lists, one reasonable (aggregated) suggestion was to do

zpool import -R /mnt -f -N rpool

-R allows to skip use of zpool.cache and have no conflicts with
existing (live) OS
-N allows to not mount and share FSes which can take long and you
don't need in this case anyway
-f you know - the force...

PS: This should work for AMD-based motherboards, too ;)
