All of that page could be summarized as:

mkdir /usb
mount /dev/da4 /usb
/usb/install_zfs.sh

Where da4 is a USB drive and install_zfs.sh is essentially the commands
with some changes needed to support different disks.  I'd imagine that
administrators wouldn't use sysinstall in interactive mode when
deploying to many machines.
