QUOTE: You might need to unset the "bootfs" property on the root pool before you do this, since OpenSolaris normally doesn't set it - it relies on the above setting in GRUB instead. END Wait, how do you unset 'bootfs' on the root pool? Do you mean that I should undo "zfs set bootfs=rpool/builda

okay. I just made buildarea bootable via "zfs set bootfs=rpool/buildarea rpool". Prior to that I made a mount point and edited vfstab. Everything boots fine now. However I would like to be able to select from "buildarea" and the default rootfs in the grub menu. Is this possible? Thanks. This m
