[Bug 262708] Root on ZFS - GEOM_LABEL issues

Graham,

Sorry I can't answer your questions: I reorganized that SSD, deleted all
partitions and re-installed only Gentoo Linux for now. FreeBSD and Windows will
follow later.

Anyway, I don't know what a "boot environment is". And, as I mentioned, I used
FreeBSD for 2 days after the update. Only the 3rd day it failed to boot.

I remember that the day before I let the Windows OS do its usual update and it
was a pretty consistent one.

I also remember that a similar thing happened last year on another machine,
where a FreeBSD system installed on UFS failed to boot after a Windows update.

This makes me think that maybe sometimes Microsoft screws up one way or another
its partition. What I fail to understand is why FreeBSD CAM and ZFS/UFS
filesystems fail to boot when changes occur on a different partition.

When I will install the new FreeBSD soon, it will go on its own dedicated disk,
with a whole disk ZFS pool.
