Sorry if I am posting some kind of FAQ here,
I recently picked up a Cubox (arm) which uses uboot. Added ZFS to Linux and
made it have a ZFS root filesystem. The only drawback is the small boot
partition of ext2/fat to read uImage and initrd.
So I am curious about adding ZFS support to uboot.

At first glance, it would suggest that it should be feasible to add ZFS to
uboot. But since I only have 'usage-level knowledge' of both boot systems,
I am unaware of any show-stoppers.
Oh please study this and submit a patch, I believe at least Pavel (CCed) would
be glad to see it in :-)
Well
done by Siemens, and practised merging that in, compiling, and flashing the
Samsung! My bad, credits where due!

If you correctly skip the HW init, you can try booting u-boot from u-boot ...

Did you miss my message of Wed, 02 May?

Unfortunately there is no legal (license-conforming) way to include
ZFS code into U-Boot and distribute it.
That means, there is no chance to get this added to mainline.
