           Summary: bsdinstall(8) zfsboot script unusable for unattended
                    installs, unless "internal" variable nonInteractive is
                    set
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New

Unattended installs with the bsdinstall zfsboot script will default to
interactive mode and get stuck in the main menu loop, the script need to be
interrupted and run manually to confirm choices.

> Failure:
>      - ZFSBOOT_DISKS, ZFSBOOT_VDEV_TYPE not picked up
>      - Asks for ZFS configuration interactively

Workaround:
  Set 'export nonInteractive="YES"' in bsdinstall(8) installerconfig.
  Also, ZFSBOOT_* variables need to be exported in installerconfig to be
  picked up by the zfsboot script.
