I did this as a test because I am aware that zpools don't like drives switching
controlers without being exported first. The question was, what would a rpool
boot drive do if it was put on a different controller and then booted?

Won't I have a problem putting the grub in slice 0 when it is also allocated to
the zpool? Or do the two co-exist?
I've been trying to shift the boot partition from slice 8 to slice 0, and then
make slice 1 the hog, but I just can't get to grips with the partition command
in order to

I have to admit that fmthard does appear to be a bit of a sledgehammer in this

Hi Michelle,
Your previous mail about the disk label reverting to EFI makes me wonder
whether you used the format -e option to relabel the disk, but your disk
