I appreciate that this is quite a substantial work. Just off the top of my 
head, each member of the RAIDZ has to have the same boot block information, 
then as you bring the RAIDZ up you have to make sure you have sufficient 
spindles in the group to boot etc etc.

In short, not easy.  But still, is there any estimate, WAG, SWAG or target for 
the ability to boot from a RAIDZ?

Oh, they should also fix Thumper and Thumper2 to have 2 slots for mirrored OS 
away from the big honking storage.

Cheers,
