This came about after attempting to use zfsboot from a jumpstart image  
on two different thumpers.

Basically, it was completely boned, probably due to a typo during one  
of the various jumpstart attempts.

However, I was extremely confused by the fact that c5t4d0 was the  
mirror on both pools, and that both of them had the same name (zboot).
Also, it's completely impossible to drop the zboot pool from the  
systems, I had to use fdisk to delete the fdisk partition on all 48  
drives to get rid of the problem.

Thought I'd put it out for others to see.

My personal thought is that the zfsboot stuff doesn't have quite the  
same error checking that the normal zfs tools do.
Thanks.
