Howdy Ron,
Right, right - I know I dropped the ball on that one. Sorry, I haven't been
able to log into OpenSolaris lately, and thus haven't been able to actually do

Okay, so your ACHI hardware is not using an ACHI driver in solaris. A crash

More or less. There are a number of bugs in LU
support of zfs that we've just fixed in the final builds
of the S10 Update 6 release, which we'll forward-port
to Nevada as soon as we catch our breath. Most but
not all are related to support of zones.

Todd, 3 days ago you were asked what mode the BIOS was using, AHCI or IDE

Yes, you should be able to use it on another computer. All the zfs information
is stored on disk. The one thing you need to be aware of is the version of ZFS
your pool is using. Systems can read versions older than the one they support
