Hi, The problem is that the device paths have changed because you used a different motherboard. ideally use an identical motherboard instead of a different one. If not, short answer is there is no easy way to fix everything. but you can recover most of the stuff by doing the following:
1. zpool import/export - This will fix the disk containing zpool changing paths 2. fixup /etc/path to inst - need to do it manually 3. fix up /dev and /devices - need to do it manually This whole process is time consuming and laborious. There is a project in the works to make this work easier, but it is still in the implementation stage.
