Using ZFS as root filesystem
Enable EnterpriseBSD to use a ZFS volume as root filesysem(s).
The following needs to be considere:
* seeding the /boot/zfs[
* take care of hostname / hostid change preventing ZFS from initializing the system (export/import with new ID before finishing installation ?) -- http://
* zfs_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf so that ZFS will be available in kernel when about to mount the rootfs
* vfs.root.
* adjusting /etc/fstab to mount the proper ZFS filesystems and not to let fsck check the ZFS mountpoints
* the default ZFS mountpoint(s) should perhaps remain different than the ones specified in /etc/fstab, to facilitate easy mounting when booting off rescue discs
* swap space may be created from on a ZFS volume, eventually specifying the "org.freebsd:
