do LiveUpgrades) and another for the rest of my data.

Luckily, my system had a pair of identical, 232GB disks. The 2nd wasn't yet
used, so by juggling mirrors (create 3 mirrors, detach the one to change,
etc...), I was able to reconfigure my disks more to my liking - all without a
single reboot or loss of data. I now have 2 pools - a 20GB root po
I'm not even trying to stripe it across multiple disks, I just want to add
another partition (from the same physical disk) to the root pool. Perhaps that
is a distinction without a difference, but my goal is to grow my root pool, not
stripe it across disks or enable raid features (for now).

Im running build 91 with ZFS boot. It seems that ZFS will not allow me to add
an additional partition to the current root/boot pool because it is a bootable
dataset. Is this a known issue that will be fixed or a permanent limitation?

Are there any updated guides/blogs on how to configure ZFS boot on a build 88
or later system?
If I already have an existing zpool, will I be able to just add a root/boot
dataset or does the root/boot dataset have to have it's own pool?
I have several working systems that have small UFS partiti
That doesn't work either.
I ended up destroying the entire pool and starting over. There was a lot of
data already in there, but it wasn't critical, luckily.

longer available. I cannot get zpool to remove it from the pool. How do I
tell zfs to take this item out of the pool if not with "zfs remove"
