Will be nice to not EFI label disks, though:) Currently there is a problem with this - zpool created on Solaris is not recognized by FreeBSD, because FreeBSD claims GPT label is corrupted. On the other hand, creating ZFS on FreeBSD (on a raw disk) can be used under Solaris. -- Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
