Hmmm... the guide at www.dan.me.uk says pretty much the same stuff as
http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS
- -- I can report that I managed to build a ZFS based box pretty smoothly
by following http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/Mirror
Confusing to have ZFSOnRoot *and* RootOnZFS articles...
Cheers,
Matthew
