ZFS rootfs on G5 970MP

[Lucas Yamanishi]

Is it possible?

I tried using 9.0-RELEASE.  I followed the UFSBoot guide from the wiki
using a UFS /bootdir slice.  Everything was done to the T.  zfs and
opensolaris modules were specified in loader.conf.  Unfortunately when I
rebooted I got this error:

<pre>
Trying to mount root from zfs:zroot []...
Mounting from zfs:zroot failed with error 2: unknown file system.

Loader variables:
  vfs.root.mountfrom=zfs:zroot
</pre>

At this point I've settled for a UFS root with ZFS /var, /tmp, and /usr
sub-hierarchies.  Sorry, that means no logs, no kbd.
