ZFS install from -CURRENT snapshot

[Daniel Staal]

Ok, I think I've figured this out, but I want some confirmation before I 
start playing with actual hardware...

The install steps on <http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot> no 
longer appear to apply.  The /dist/ directory doesn't exist on any of the 
current snapshots, so the actual install process given in that page can't 
work.

Am I correct in guessing that the /usr/freebsd_dist/ directory has replaced 
it in some form?  Also, instead of sub-folders with install scripts, there 
are tarballs, which I assume are extracted over the new filesystem?  Then 
any necessary pre-boot configuration would be done.  (Anything special need 
mention beyond what is on the page above?)

If there's a doc someplace on this, feel free to point me to it.

I just want a sanity-check before I dive in headfirst...
