You need to specify your boot zfs pool in grub menu.lst: # ZFS boot title Solaris ZFS root (hd0,3,d) *bootfs rootpool/rootfs *kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -B $ZFS-BOOTFS module$ /platform/i86pc/$ISADIR/boot_archive
In this example, the bootfs is rootpool/rootfs. Grub will load the kernel & boot_archive from this pool. Rgds, Andre W.
