If I use the virt-manager menu to send Ctl-Alt-Del, I get this output:
Press ESC for boot menu.
I quickly press ESC, producing:
1. AHCI/0: QEMU HARDDISK ...
2. DVD/CD ...
3. Legacy option rom
4. iPXE ...
I press 1 and get
Booting from Hard Disk...
BIOS drive C: is disk0
ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable
ZFS: can't read MOS of pool rpool
Can't find /boot/loader
Can't find /boot/zfsloader
illumos/x86 boot
Default: /boot/loader
boot:
At that point, I no idea how to get to a ``second page of loader
options.''
The boot prompt is opaque: it only prompts again when I try input like
"?", "help", "boot", ESCape, F1, F2, ..., F12, PageUp, PageDown, ....
I find it often aggravating that BIOS code is so low level and
unusable without a separate manual.
