One further question:
_ I've read encryption is selected at the dataset level and that you 
can't boot from an encrypted dataset;
_ somewhere else I read you cannot boot from an encrypted pool.

So just to be sure: can I create only one zpool and boot from it, while 
having part of it (one or more datasets) encrypted, as long as the one 
where the OS is is in clear?
