It could be that newfs is overwriting the partition table.
Can you post the output of 'gpart show<device>' and 'bsdlabel<device>s1'?

I dumped/restored the system to ad8 yesterday and booted from it.
The system *did* boot but (alas) the /dev/ads1a(f) slices were mounted. So, the system loaded the *old* root partitions (from the first drive). After googling and reading I think I need *boot0cfg* but I'm a bit scary to ruin my new boot (ad8) drive.

So, what is the exact syntax to make my system not only boot from ad8, but also mount the /deb/ad8s1 slice as root slice?

After that I can remove my old ata drive and hopefully my zfs errors are gone too then. ;-)

Did you adjust /etc/fstab on ad8s1?
