EFI ZFS loader successful load and boot

[Eric McCorkle]

Looking at your screenshots, it looks like the ZFS pool is being
detected, but not initialized correctly.

Are you certain you have the latest version of the patch?  This looks
similar to errors I was getting earlier in development, before I figured
out the code for setting everything up correctly.
