That is good stuff. With the upcoming release of FreeBSD including support
for ZFS it will hopefully only be a matter of time before it too can boot
ZFS.

Subject: [MSUNAG] ZFS boot
If any of you are using OpenSolaris, here is a great blog post about
converting to a ZFS root (/):
http://blogs.sun.com/timf/date/20070329
If you're unfamiliar with ZFS but want to learn more, check here:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/whatis/
Now take what you've read there and imagine you can boot off of it.
No more wasted space or being locked in to a bad decision when you
(or your predecessor) initially setup the box.
Good stuff!
